PARKING
"Loads and normally a good spot for unloading at foot of stairs."

"Not the worst but its up a flight of external metal stairs. Unlike some however they are well lit and not overly steep. Once inside its a short run to the stage. When unloading there is an incline to maneuver which can be a danger to ankles"
FACILITIES
"Small stage in corner. Too narrow to get the speakers or plinths on, so its normally stand only. I often set a lighting ring up away from the stage. - width available: 2-3m - height clearance: 2-3m"
