From Platform 1, London Underground, Eastbound

Go towards the front of the train and continue up the two flights of stairs in front of you, into the concourse. Continue to the wall and turn right, the manual gate is in the first gap on your left and the automatic gate line is beyond this. Go through the gates and continue forward through the exit.

BACK TO TOP

From Platform 2, London Underground, Westbound

Go towards the rear of the train, locate the stairs in front of you and take the right hand flight (exit). Go up two flights of stairs into the concourse. Continue to the gate line, in front of you. The manual gate is to your left, in a separate gap in the wall. If you prefer to use the manual gate, I suggest you turn left immediately at the top of the stairs and continue for a few metres before crossing the concourse. If you find a blank wall in front of you, you've overshot; turn right (180 degrees), follow the wall on your left to locate the manual gate. Go through the gates and continue forwards through the exit.

Go through the gates and continue forward through the exit.
