Just along the boardwalk from our landing stage, you will find Quayside, a bustling area full of restaurants and bars.
The open space at Quayside provided a wharf area for loading boats in the 16th century, and has remained undeveloped ever since, while the surrounding buildings have gone through many incarnations. In the 1980s the ironworks and brewery sites were redeveloped into large commercial buildings, and since then the area has become a vibrant pocket of life in the city.
If you have any problems finding us on the day please call us on 01223 782306.
Please note there is no parking at our meeting point, so you can use one of the multi-storey car parks around the city or alternatively use the Park and Ride services.
