The closest metro stations are Manors (8 minute walk) and Jesmond (11 minute walk), so you can get to the Shieldfield Centre via both yellow and green metro routes.

If you have travelled by car, we have 8 car parking spaces situated to the front of the Shieldfield Centre adjacent to Stoddart Street. These are the 8 spaces in front of The NewBridge Project space entrance, you cannot park in any of the spaces after the white line as these are for the Thornfield Medical Centre.
There is also other parking located in the Shieldfield area.
