The Street

The Street is the name given to the corridor which runs the length of the William Gates Building, and is the first corridor you access when you walk through the main entrance.

It is open access to the public, and where you will find Reception and the Café, and have access to the Lecture Theatres on the Ground and 1st floors.

You can also access the courtyards from The Street.

For information about the building and access, visit the Access and security page.
