The Museum is beside Battlebridge Basin, on the Regent's Canal.
From the front of King's Cross mainline station, turn left and walk alongside the station, down York Way. Carry on until you see a traffic island in the middle of the road with a right turn, this is Wharfdale Road. Follow Wharfdale Road until you see New Wharf Road which is the second turning on the left. From King's Cross Thameslink, exit from the station, turning left. Turn right at the traffic lights, cross the road and walk straight along the road opposite. Keep straight on via Balfe Street when the Caledonian Road turns to the right and you will reach Wharfdale Road.
There are two routes, the first is reccommended:
Follow directions for King's Cross main line
Exit the station turning left. You will come to a cross roads almost immediately, where you will turn right. You will need to cross two roads to do that. Follow Caledonian Road until you see a Tesco supermarket on your left. At the supermarket continue straight on along Balfe Street. This comes out on Wharfdale Road. Turn right there, and then look for New Wharf Road on the left.
