The easiest way to reach the lecture theatre is to enter through the main gates on Gower Street, opposite the Cruciform building. The Wilkins building will be directly in front of you.

[Before the Guillotine @lostideasconf]

Upon entering the building, turn right and walk through a second set of doors keeping to the right again. There will be a staircase in front of you with signs leading to the Gustave Tuck Lecture Theatre.

[Before the Guillotine @lostideasconf]

Head towards this building and turn right. You do not need to climb the stairs.
There will be a door leading into the South Cloister building, ignore this and take the second door in the far right hand corner.
