By road
M4:
Leave the motorway at junction 11 (the main A33 exit). At the roundabout take the exit for the B3270 Earley and Shinfield. Follow this road for about half a mile. At the roundabout take the first exit towards Reading (Shinfield Road). Follow this road, going straight over two mini-roundabouts in a small shopping area. After another half a mile, and having passed some minor entrances to LP, you will find the main entrance on your right, immediately before a set of traffic lights.
Oxford:
Take the A34 south to the M4; join the motorway eastbound and follow the route above.
A4 East:
As you approach Reading, you encounter the Shepherds Hill roundabout with a large garage in the middle. Take the second exit left (B3350, Earley), at a mini-roundabout bear left (into Church Road), over a further mini-roundabout, over the A329M, to a crossroads with traffic lights. Go straight ahead, into Wilderness Lane. After about half a mile (at the third mini roundabout), turn right into Pepper Lane. The entrance to LP is on the left almost directly opposite the entrance to the University of Reading.
Reading Centre:
Follow directions for A327 Aldershot and Reading University. Initially, follow A33 Basingstoke if you do not see A327 signs. When on the A327 (Shinfield Road), shortly after the main University entrance, you’ll reach a set of traffic lights, go straight ahead and turn almost immediately left into the school grounds.
