HOW TO GET TO ART'S MUSIC LOUNGE
From Central London the quickest and most direct route is via the ELIZABETH LINE to Woolwich and then the 244 bus (destination Queen Elizabeth Hospital and NOT Abbey Wood, which is the wrong way). Alight the bus at the Eaglesfield Road (the first stop in Shrewsbury Lane) at the top of Shooter's Hill and then a few minutes walk. Don't go further along Shrewsbury Lane as you walk the opposite way to Shrewsbury House.
The other options nearby are the railway stations at WELLING (from Kent) and BLACKHEATH (from London) with the 89 bus from each taking you to the top of Shooters Hill, followed by a short walk.
If you are coming by car there is Disabled parking on site and free parking in the surrounding streets.
