A lift is available for accessibility but we’ll need to send it down from inside. Please ring 07840204751 when you’re here. (This is the space phone, so will only be answered if someone is in.)

Although parking on site is free, you must register at reception everytime you visit in order to avoid a hefty fine! -A very disgruntled visitor. See below for how to register your vehicle on arrival.

We are open on Wednesday evening from 6.30 to 8.30pm. If you are making a special journey, make sure to mention that you are coming, so we can make sure that we are available!

To visit at other times, please get in touch to make an appointment.

This map pinpoints us on the White Cross estate (view larger map):

This is the entrance that you are looking for, at the top end of Harpers Mill. The doors on the other sides of the building (for Fat Media and The Olive Branch) do not join up inside! We use the same entrance as the Dance Hub, Pren beer shop and Soma yoga studio.

On foot

Use either the South Road or Quarry Road entrances. The latter is locked up at night, but you can still get access from Quarry Road by walking through the carpark of the White Cross Neighbourhood Centre.

Bicycle

There is a covered bike stand at the bottom of the car park, opposite Waterview. See the map above to help you find it.

Bus

Buses stop right outside of the White Cross Business Park on South Road, Lancaster, at the Infirmary bus stop. Walk down towards the canal and turn right into White Cross Street. Then follow the walking instructions above.

Car

If coming by car, use either the South Road entrance (opposite the Royal Lancaster Infirmary) or the Quarry Road entrance and park. Pop in to reception in The Gatehouse WITHIN 20 MINUTES OF ARRIVAL and log your registration at the kiosk to get a visitor’s permit for your vehicle. If challenged by security staff, just say that you are visiting LAMM.

Train

If you got off at Lancaster UK train station, you’re at least in the right city. You should walk towards Lancaster town centre and then head towards the hospital (Royal Lancaster Infirmary) at the ‘top’ of town (this is the South end of the city centre, known as the top by some local quirk…). Cross the canal bridge at the top of Penny Street, heading towards the hospital, and turn left immediately into White Cross Street. Head past reception through the tunnel, across the car park, leaving Richmond House to your right, and up the hill to the top entrance of Harpers Mill.
