Finding us - (It ain't easy!)

By car - (Access Blast Lane via Cadman Street)

From Sheffield City Centre, at Park Square roundabout take the exit sign posted Victoria Quays. Go into the far right hand lane. At traffic lights bear right onto Furnival Road and towards Royal Victoria Holiday Inn and Hilton Hotel (on the right).

Continue forward at next set of traffic lights across Derek Dooley Way (dual carriageway) and under the large railway arch/tunnel onto Effingham Street.  Pass the Gas Works on the right and bear right at the 'Y' junction.

Continue forward until you pass under the next stone railway bridge and turn immediately right onto Sussex Street. Continue forward up the hill and bear left where the road branches off onto Cadman Street (there is no street name sign here!).  Follow the road over the canal and past the Sipelia Works entrance turning right onto Blast Lane where the shop entrance is situated down the street and to the right hand side.

On foot

From the Canal Basin, with your back to the City Centre, walk down the right hand side of the canal.  Pass the Sheaf Quay building (on the opposite bank picture below on the left) and walk under the first bridge which is steel and painted green (pictured below) and then under the second stone built bridge where you immediately turn right onto Blast Lane (signposted) and then left passing under the railway arch up a gentle incline towards Emmaus which is the large red brick Victorian building situated in front of you.
