Travel Directions
By Road
Join the A1 and follow signage for The North or The South depending on the direction of your journey.
North-bound travellers should follow signs for Newcastle City Centre after the Angel of the North but before the Metro Centre.
South-bound travellers should follow signs for Newcastle City Centre when they reach the Kenton/Novotel turn off.
Once in Newcastle City Centre, you need to head to the east end of the city via Newcastle's Quayside and make your way onto City Road. Continue east along City Road, over Glass Bridge and onto Walker Road. Continue 200 yards along Walker Road and turn left into the Hoults Yard Estate.

By Bus
One of the easiest ways to reach Northern Film & Media's office from the Newcastle City Centre is by taking the Yellow Quaylink Q2 bus. You can board the Q2 Quaylink bus at various points throughout the city, including the Haymarket Bus Station, outside Newcastle's Theatre Royal, at the bottom of Grey Street outside the Niche Hotel and Living Room Restaurant/Bar (this is the best bus stop from Newcastle's Central Station) or Newcastle's Quayside.
You should take the Q2 Quaylink bus to the Walker Road bus stop. Walk east 25 metres, past the terraced houses and turn left through large green gates onto the Hoults Yard Estate.
You will see a large building on your left with an arch in it. Go through the arch and you will see the Clock Tower Café in front of you up a short hill. Walk up past the Clock Tower Café and we are in The Kiln, directly behind on the right.
Studio 3 is located on the ground floor, just in front of the main entrance door to The Kiln.

By Air
Northern Film & Media can be reached from Newcastle International Airport either by taxi (readily available outside the main airport entrance; journey approximately 30 minutes, depending on time of day) or by the local light rail Metro to the city centre followed by a short bus journey. Take the Metro from Newcastle International Airport to the Haymarket. Turn right into the Haymarket Bus Station and take the Q2 (first stand) to Walker Road. Walk 200 yards East from the Walker Road bus stop and turn left onto the Hoults Yard Estate.
