How to reach the Conference Site
King's Manor is in Exhibition Square, next to the City Art Gallery and opposite the Theatre Royal, a few minutes walk from the centre of York. It houses the Department of Archaeology (incorporating the Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies), the Centre for Eighteenth Century Studies and the Centre for Medieval Studies. It provides a venue for meetings and conferences and many of the classes run by the Centre for Continuing Education.

Buses 1, 2 and 3 go from the Railway Station to Exhibition Square. Alternately, it takes about 10 minutes to walk. Travelling between the two campuses takes about 20 minutes either by bike or car.

By car, the easiest approach to King's Manor is to take the A19 turn off from the A1237 section of the outer ring road, which goes directly to the centre of the City. Please note the parking restrictions.
