Walking / Cycling

The College is a 10-minute walk from town.

From the Old Cattle Market bus station you can get to the college by following a straight road.

The College has a lockable cycle shelter that is activated by your student card, please head to the learning curve to get cycle shelter access added to your student card.

We suggest if you are cycling to College you bring a strong lock (such as a D lock) to secure your cycle inside the shed.

Bus
