Where are we?

We meet in the Roy Kemp room of the Central Hall in Duncombe Street, Grimsby.  
 

This is off Freeman Street in the centre of the town, and easy to find. Final rehearsals are normally in the central hall concert venue itself. Use the widget below to get directions from your location.

General Instructions

One main road, the A16, approaches Grimsby from the South, and two from the West, the A180 and the A46. (If approaching from the East, please consult Admiralty chart 109)

 Note: Caution! Work was completed a couple of years ago to re-route the A16 approach to Grimsby. Older maps may be confusing. If coming from the south, follow the details given below.

The A46

the A6 arrives at a large double roundabout Nuns Corner, and from this point keep left to follow Bargate towards Grimsby town centre. For St James Church, the venue for some concerts, keep straight on for another 0.2 mile, over a railway bridge, and the church is in front of you. Parking can be found by keeping left.

For the Central Hall from Nuns Corner keep on the A46 towards Cleethorpes. Turn left on the A16  at traffic lights. Then follow the directions below for the A16.

From the new A16

Approach (Peaks Parkway on the map), for Central Hall, turn right at a first set of traffic lights after passing under a railway bridge. Pass under another bridge, then left at the second set of lights into Freeman Street and keep straight on (several sets of lights) for about a quarter mile to take the fourth turn right  into Duncombe Street. The Central Hall is just on the left, with parking a little further on, also on the left. There is a security guard for the car park on concert evenings and for scheduled rehearsals.

From the A180

For St James Church, turn right at the second roundabout on approaching the town, along Pyewipe Road, then left at the next roundabout, Market Hotel, and follow Cromwell Road to the second set of lights. Here turn left over a railway bridge for St James Church.

From the A180 for the Central Hall, keep straight on past several roundabouts until you come to traffic lights. Keep straight on, then turn right immediately beyond a  petrol station on the right. This is Albion Street. After about 0.25 mile turn right into Garibaldi Street, and then left at Freeman Street (a main shopping street) and left again into Duncombe Street. The Hall and car park are shortly on your left. Duncombe Street is a one-way street towards Albion Street.
