Venue and Travel

Arriving at the college
Lady Margaret Hall provides full travel details. Note that you are strongly advised against bringing a car to Oxford for this meeting as the parking charges locally would be quite high. (If you do bring a car, park in the Water Eaton Park and Ride and take the bus in.)

Miscellaneous
The college has wireless networks throughout: the Oxford University network and also Eduroam. For those of you from universities, if you have not already registered with Eduroam at your home university, you are recommended to do so as it will simplify matters greatly. As part of the booking, we undertook not to allow any of you to do anything that would bring Oxford University or Lady Margaret College into disrepute. We doubt that any of you had plans in that direction, but Oxford Brookes University legal team asked me to tell you that it's not allowed.
