7.4 Kilburn building directions
The Kilburn building shown in figure 7.2 is about 20 minutes walk from either Manchester Piccadilly (MAN) or ten minutes from Manchester Oxford Road (MCO). Our official postcode (M13 9PL) takes you to University Place (which looks like a giant tin of baked beans) next door, so you’re better of using the what3words locations (Leatherdale 2019) below which are more accurate:
- Google map of the Kilburn building bit.ly/directions-to-kilburn-building
- There are two ground floor entrances to the Kilburn building, North and South
- North entrance: what3words.com/port.museum.rips, see figure 7.5
- South entrance: what3words.com/common.wiping.email, see figure 7.4
- There is no formal reception so the best place to meet is bit.ly/ByteCafe on the first floor
