Figure 7.1: Paying homage to Alan Turing at a mural on the Princess Parkway by tankpetrol.com. According to Jonathan Swinton, Turing is the “patron saint of Manchester” (Swinton 2019).

From the train stations, it takes about 20 minutes to walk from Manchester Piccadilly (MAN) and ten minutes from Manchester Oxford Road (MCO). Our official postcode (M13 9PL) takes you to University Place 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
  • South entrance: what3words.com/common.wiping.email
• There is no formal reception so the best place to meet is bit.ly/ByteCafe on the first floor
