directions 

MEANTIME is situated close to Cheltenham town centre in Oxford Pasage, behind Bennington St, which is off the Lower High St. Oxford Passage is adjacent to the Brewery complex, at the back of Cineworld. There are no street signs - landmarks at the St Margaret’s Rd end include a redbrick Sunday School building on one side of the road, and Gloscol IT centre 'Do IT' on the other.

on foot

The building is two minutes walk from the Lower High St: by Tesco Metro turn up Bennington St, past Howell’s furniture shop. By George's Organic Cafe cross Bennington St diagonally and turn left to walk through the 'Private' car-park (below), which is on the footprint of a demolished house. Turn right at the end, MEANTIME is on the right, opposite new flats, with grey doors.

 

Or, from the St. Margaret's Rd end, if you were standing in the doorway of the Habitat store in the Brewery centre, facing out into the world, head towards the main road ahead bearing right. Follow the outside of the building round to the first corner and turn right. This is Oxford Passage. MEANTIME is about half way down on your left, with grey doors.

by car

Oxford Passage is a cul-de-sac and there is no street parking (note: the parking bays opposite the building are prohibited). There are car-parks nearby, e.g. at North Place or the Brewery NCP, on the north side of town. 

From Tewksbury/M5 junct 10 (North): Follow the A4019 into Cheltenham, straight-on at the lights after Tesco Superstore and follow the road round, past the Post Office sorting-office on your left, through a few more traffic-lights, past Matalan, until you see the new Brewery development with Habitat on your right (this is St Margaret’s Rd). Oxford Passage is first right here.

From Gloucester/M5 junct 11 (South): Follow the A40 into Cheltenham, past the Rotunda building (Montpellier) on your left and parks on your right. At the main traffic lights on  the Promenade, follow the ring road round through more lights, past 'Boots Corner' (Boots, Primark). Just after, drive straight-on instead of following the road round to the right. At the traffic-lights ahead at the junction with St. Margaret's Road, take a left and proceed. Oxford Passage is third on the left just before the Brewery centre. 

by train

Take the 'D' bus from Cheltenham Spa station car-park, direction town centre (or race-course), and disembark in the town centre outside Cult Clothing at 'Boots Corner', where you'll see Boots, Primark, etc ahead of you. Take the first left into the Lower High St (or 'West End') and head towards Tesco Metro where you turn right. Follow directions as above for 'on foot'.

This is the entrance to Oxford Passage from St. Margarets Rd end. MEANTIME is half-way down on the left, with grey doors.
