By car
We encourage you to travel into Manchester by public transport if you can. However, if you are travelling my car, there is very limited short-stay on-street parking immediately outside the Engine House. There is also an NCP car park opposite the building on Hulme Street.
GPS
We are closer to the corner of Hulme Street than Google Maps would suggest, but here is our location anyway.
