Getting to Wellington College by Rail

Crowthorne station is within an easy, short walk of Wellington College. Indeed, it was once the school's own station, and the line bisects the estate.

As you leave the station, turn right and walk up Dukes Ride, past the shops of lower Crowthorne. After about 250 metres, you will see the Wellington Business estate on your right.  However half-right is the road and path that takes you to the Wellington Sports Club.  Through reception you will find the road taking you to the centre of college. 

If you miss the turning to the Sports Club, after another 200m along Dukes Ride you'll find the main entrance to the School on your right. Proceed along 'the Kilometre' and you'll see the main school buildings on your right. All visitors are asked to report to Reception, which is just to the right under the clock tower.
