New Cellars is best accessed by Pembroke College Porters’ Lodge. Once inside, turn right and follow the path round by the library clock tower and towards the modern Foundress Court.

New Cellars is part of the basement of this building; use the lift or turn clockwise down the steps in BB staircase to reach the auditorium.
