VENUE:
RICHMOND
COLLEGE,
Egerton Road, Twickenham.
Tel.: 0208-607-8165 College is located opposite the Rugby Stadium in Twickenham. I would suggest picking up the A316, either at the end of the M3 ( from the South West), or from the A205 South Circular Road (from the South East), or from the end of the M4, via the A406 (North Circular)/Kew Bridge/A205/A307 (from the West). From the North, either follow the M25 to the M4, and then as from the West, or the A206 (North Circular) to Kew Bridge, and then as from the West. Once in Twickenham, follow signs to the Rugby Stadium, and turn into Egerton Road opposite. [If coming from M3, you have to go to the next traffic island, and come back on yourself to turn in].
