How to find us 

Our Cathedral has a car park with access via Shadwell Street. Spaces are limited, particularly when the Cathedral is hosting large events. There are also a number of car parks in the area, including one opposite the Cathedral.

It is good to note that the car park and the Cathedral are on separate levels. Access from the car park to the main doors of the Cathedral is by steps or by exiting the car park on foot, turning left and following Cathedral House building up the hill and around to the main Cathedral doors.

The car park can be found on Shadwell Street, B4 6EY.

The car park gates are closed outside of Mass times. Please do not park at the Cathedral for any reason other than attendance at Archbishop’s House, Cathedral House or at the Cathedral and Cathedral shop without prior arrangement.
