Directions
By car:
Follow M25 until the exit for A3 Junction 10 – direction London. After approximately 14 miles take the exit on left off of the A3 marked Wimbledon A219 (it comes up very quickly – the first indication is a sign for Hammersmith at which point you need to ensure that you are in the left lane). Go round the roundabout taking the 3rd exit following signs for Wimbledon. This will take you past Wimbledon Common through Wimbledon village – follow the main road through the village until you start going down a hill towards the town centre – this is Wimbledon Hill Road.
At the bottom of the hill and the start of the shops, there is a set of pedestrian lights. Turn left immediately after these lights at an estate agents called Kinleigh Folkard Hayward. You are now on Alwyne Road and we are to be found at the far end of this road on the left-hand corner.
Basically the 3rd on the left as you leave the village and start descending the hill. If you find yourself going past the main train station, you have gone too far.
