For members walking from Greenwich centre from the DLR etc., until 7:30pm the Stanhope Gate (first gate on Romney Road, opposite the Museum main entrance), will be open.

For members coming by car, you may park free in the NMM East Wing staff car park on meeting evenings.  Until 7:30pm the car park entrance “Anchor Gate”, which opens out into Park Row at the north-east corner of the site (first gate on the right coming south down Park Row from Romney Road) will be open on meeting evenings.  This gate can also be used by members walking from Maze Hill mainline station — one stop after Greenwich.   Please tell the Security Officer at the gate you are coming to the Flamsteed meeting.

On leaving at the end of the evening, it may be necessary to use the Royal Gates letting out onto Romney Road opposite the Queen’s House.  Walk back to the East Wing car park to collect your cars and the Security Officer will direct you — drive out passing in front of the Queen’s House and down to Romney Road, which is the main road running between the Old Royal Naval College and the museum.

If you are in trouble for any reason the duty security officer in the control room will assist you.  Please note that the Control Room is manned twenty-four hours a day every day of the year.  The number is 020 8312 6532.
