Cambridge Centre for Chinese Theology

 

Email us on ccct@divinity.cam.ac.uk

The Cambridge Centre for Chinese Theology is located in the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge.

Train

There are two train stations in Cambridge, both at a distance from the city centre. We advise disembarking at Cambridge station rather than Cambridge North. 

There is a taxi stand outside the main train station. The fare from Cambridge station to the Faculty (one-way) should be approximately £12. 

Car

It can be difficult to get parking near the Faculty, except for short visits. We recommend the Park & Ride facilities at Madingley (near Eddington) as served by a direct bus to the Sidgwick Site. There are other Park & Ride options if you are content to walk from the city centre. 

Bus 

The Universal bus services (U1 and U2) call at Cambridge train station (Stand 8) on the way between Addenbrookes (south of city centre) and Girton or Eddington (north of city centre). Bus stops are shown on the interactive map (courtesy of map.cam.ac.uk). The two routes alternate approximately once every 15 minutes. U1 (toward Girton) stops closest to the Faculty of Divinity (stop: University Library). U2 (toward Eddington) stops near the end of West Road, around 4 minutes’ walk from the Faculty.

From the train station, the bus journey takes around 12–15 minutes. Once at the Sidgwick Site, the Faculty is located off the parking area adjacent to West Road Concert Hall.

Other bus services serve the city centre. The Drummer Street bus station is about 20 minutes’ walk from the Faculty.

On foot

The Faculty is about 15 minutes' walk from central Cambridge, and 35-40 minutes’ walk from Cambridge train station. 

Special arrangements

For those with restricted mobility or other specific needs, a parking permit may be arranged by advance request. Requests can be submitted via email to ccct@divinity.cam.ac.uk and will be passed to the Faculty of Divinity office.

To make a request for parking, we will require information about the vehicle (registration plate, driver’s name) as well as the purpose of your visit. Requests must be received at least 4 working days in advance of your visit. We regret we are unable to guarantee the availability of on site parking.

For information about accessibility, please visit the Faculty’s entry on accessAble.co.uk.
