James Street West (Gc) on James Street West is about 70 m away; use buses 21, X39, 39, 19, 3, 4, 1 and 5. Monmouth Place (Gd) on Monmouth Place is about 90 m away; use buses X76, 3, 4, 21, X39, 19 and 39. Bath Spa railway station is approximately 850 m away in a straight line; use the live Bath bus network planner for the station connection and current platform direction.

Charlotte Street Car Park is the nearest mapped public car park, approximately 180 m from the visitor point; it is marked as paid. Bath city centre is inside the Clean Air Zone; check the vehicle charge before entering. Lansdown, Newbridge and Odd Down Park & Ride are the practical alternatives when central parking is busy.

The nearest mapped cycle parking is about 50 m away at New King Street (6 spaces, uncovered); use a proper lock and do not assume the stand is monitored. Bath sits on National Cycle Route 4; the Bristol–Bath Railway Path and Two Tunnels Route 244 are useful approaches from the west and south.

Navigate to New King Street 19, BA1 2BL, Bath. From James Street West (Gc), allow for an approximately 70 m final walk and follow signs to the public visitor entrance. Central Bath is compact but several approaches use uneven historic paving.
