Directions

From the M40: Exit at Junction 11 for Banbury. Follow the signs to Banbury Town Centre and car parks (we recommend you follow the signs to Castle Quay Shopping Centre car parks if you are unfamiliar with the town).

From the Castle Quay Shopping Centre, either: (1) Exit the shopping centre at the top end (past Jessops), cross the outside entrance area and continue on up Parsons Street opposite. Turn left down Church Lane, just before Lawrence Anthony hairdressers. Half way down Church Lane on the right hand side turn up Church Walk (you should see a Books & Ink pavement sign to direct you!), left at One Man Band, the music shop & you should see us.

Alternatively, (2) if you exit Castle Quay near WHSmiths, Marks & Spencer or HMV, cross the Market Square and carry on through to the High Street (past NatWest bank, Bagel Bite etc.). Turn right onto the pedestrianised High Street and continue past Monsoon, Milletts, Moss etc. The entrance to White Lion Walk is on the right hand side past the bar, Que Pasa. You should see our pavement board!

From the railway station: At the top of the entrance road to the station, turn left onto Bridge Street. Cross straight over at the traffic lights towards the town centre. Where the road forks at the Town Hall stay left and continue on up the pedestrianised High Street until you get to the entrance to White Lion Walk (on your right hand side).
