The Thomas Paine Centre is on the right towards the end of Chancellor's Drive from the Security Lodge.

It is signed as such over the side entrance but the main entrance is styled ‘Norwich Business Centre’.

There is a convenient bus stop very close to the Thomas Paine Centre/Norwich Business School block. 

The West Car Park is nearest and is open on a pay-and-display basis at weekends (£1.00 flat fee). The entrance is on the right off Chancellor’s Drive, just after the bus shelters (ignore the ‘staff only’ sign).

The Centre is marked 52 on the maps around the site. The West Car Park is marked as P3.

A downloadable version of the campus map is available on request.
