Walking from Lime Street Station

From the train station, leave via the main exit which has a large flight of stairs flanked by two stone dolphins. Turn left and follow Lime Street until you walk past the Britannia Adelphi hotel. Turn left and walk up Brownlow Hill. This will take you about 15 minutes. Cross the road at the pedestrian crossing, continue up the hill and then look for the Red Brick Victoria Building to your left and the Foundation Building to your right. Turn right directly after the Foundation Building into Mount Pleasant. The University of Liverpool Guild of Students will be on your left. Walk to the end of this road and our building is the last on the left. As you approach the main campus there are several precinct maps giving details of the University buildings.
