Access and Quiet Spaces

Access to the cafe extension is step free Lower Canal Walk and there is a ramp available should you need it to access the cafe, toilets and rest of the building. The courtyard also has step free access from the corner of Lower Canal Walk and Town Quay road.

GHT is a 25-minute walk from Southampton Central Train station and is on a number of local bus routes. Our closest car parks are Gloucester Square and Mayflower park. This part of the city can get very busy with traffic from the cruise ship terminals at this time of year so please do allow for extra time if you’re driving.

For information on parking and travel please visit the Plan your Visit page of our website.

If you’d like to familiarise yourself before your visit you can take a virtual tour of the spaces on our website. You’ll also find a visual story so that you know what to expect and how to identify members of the GHT Team.

About 7 Story Plots

“I’ve heard that story before”... You probably have!

There are seven classic plots of fiction, but endless ways to tell them.

From March to November 2026, In Focus presents 7 Story Plots — a multi-venue journey unravelling the threads woven through the most legendary tales.

In these free hands-on zine-making workshops, craft your own mini storybook inspired by one of the classic plots. Open to all — no experience needed. See your creations displayed alongside others from In Focus workshops, with the exhibition refreshed each month to explore a different story.
