How to find Jim or anyone else in the Galton Laboratory, Wolfson House, UCL

Jim is in Room 412, Wolfson House. The street address is 4 Stephenson Way, shown in square R-11 at the top of the UCL area map, or at the right bottom corner of the top left grid on this London street map. Stephenson Way is abbreviated on the latter map to "STEPH. WAY", and the small building marked "UCL" is Wolfson House. (The major part of the college is between Gower Street and Gordon Street in the central part of each map.)

Closest Underground (Tube) Stations:

From Euston Square tube station (Metropolitan & Circle Lines), leave by the north exit (the sign says Euston and British Rail). Turn right into North Gower Street and turn right again into Stephenson Way, which is a partially cobbled L-shaped street. Wolfson House is on the inside corner of the L.

From Euston Station (British Rail, but also the tube: Northern Line, Victoria Line). There are many exits from the main hall of the station (to the West, East, and South), but you must take the West exit (Melton Street), walk through the colonnade, across Melton Street, and keep on going into Euston Street. Stephenson Way is first left off Euston Street.

Both stations are 2-5 minutes walk from Wolfson House. If you have been walking for more than 10 minutes, you are lost! Other stations such as King's Cross and Warren Street are also within walking distance; see the London Street map for details.

From airports:

Heathrow. Take the Underground (Piccadilly line, dark blue) to central London and transfer to Victoria (pale blue) or Northern (black) lines to arrive at Euston. If you intend to travel on the underground later in the day and if you arrive after 9:30am, you might buy a one-day travel card. The trip from Heathrow airport to central London takes about one hour.

Alternatively take Heathrow Express train (15 minutes, every 15 minutes) to Paddington and then underground (Central or Hammersmith lines) to Euston Square. More expensive.

Gatwick. There are buses and trains to Victoria station. It takes about 30 minutes from Gatwick to Victoria by Gatwick Express or British Rail, then it's about 15 minutes to Euston Station, near the Galton Laboratory.

Luton. The train to St Pancras is about 30 minutes. You can then take the Underground to Euston, or walk along Euston Road for about 10 minutes.

Please report any inaccuracies in these instructions to Jim Mallet.

Good luck.
