HALL D

DESCRIBE ONLINE

Overview

This hall comprises the three rooms, DR 4, DR 5 and Room 6 of the Barrett Suite, between which the doors in the curtained walls will be opened to create a single room. For convenience, however, the catalogue will regard these rooms as D1, D2 and D3 as you move away from the refreshments area.

To Reach

From the Concourse, go up the main stairs, turn right (180 degrees) from the top of the first flight and go up another flight of steps onto the balcony. Continue forwards and go through the doors in front of you. For the west part of the hall (rooms D2 and D3), turn left, go up the six steps in front of you into the short passage and go through the door on your right into D2, or continue forward and go through the door into D3. You enter D3 facing west into a seating area with the main part of D3 to your right. There's a dance floor in front of a rectangular bar at the north end of D3.

For the east part (D1), continue forwards, up six steps and through the door in front of you.

Note that, when entering D1 and D2 you enter into the south side of the hall, facing north. When entering D3, you're facing west, across the seating area at the south end of this part of the hall.
