By Bus

By Car

Don't do it unless you have to - driving in London is insane, slow and costly (congestion charges in central London and high parking fees)

If you need to park, there is a pay and display area behind the town hall (go right onto Three Colt Street after the church, and weave your way to the back of the hall), but there are no parking wardens on weekends.

By Plane

Stansted (STN)

[WWW] http://www.stanstedairport.com/

Take the train Stansted Express to Liverpool Street station (45 mins) (27GBP return)

Note: ASLEF are planning a [WWW] strike that will close paddington station on Oct 3rd, 11th and 19th so if you are travelling on any of those days please go to heathrow by tube instead of the Heathrow Express and allow extra journey time

The Walk From Limehouse DLR Station

Walk under the bridge to the main road and turn right (same direction as the train you were on)

With the station to your right continue, you'll see a modern red brick church also on the right, lots of inspiring modern property developments, deeply expressive embodiment of economic aspiration for local residents, then an ex-library with a statue of Clement Attlee in front of it, then you'll see Limehouse Town Hall with St Anne's (Hawksmoor) church behind it.

Go up the steps to the front door and ring 'The Boxing Club' bell to the left.
