By bus/coach. To Sheffield Bus Station, cross to Railway Station and follow directions

 By car. From M1 Junction Junction 33 take Sheffield Parkway (A630 /A57)
towards Sheffield Centre. At the Park Square roundabout (the only roundabout)
keep in left hand lane following signs toA61 South (3rd exit towards Chesterfield).
Go past Railway Station on Left and Bus Station on right. After the station, entering one-way system,
keep in left lane. Very soon, at the first major junction with Macdonalds visible ahead,
go straight on (Farm Road, one way road. Do not bear slightly right on the A61), keeping Macdonalds on your left and the ice rink on your right.
At the Give Way, go straight on then immediately left up the hill under the tram line.
Bear right following the tram. Very soon you should see Park Grange Croft tram stop on the right.

bear right at the traffic lights along Queens Road (marked to A630 Rotherham, and later to M1).
Carry straight on until you see B&Q Warehouse on right. Go past B&Q, then turn immediately right.

Asking for directions locally to Norfolk Lodge or Sheffield Mencap will probably not be
very helpful. There are many old lodge-like buildings in the Norfolk Park area area with the Norfolk name.
(This building is actually a modern purpose-built building).
Best to ask for Park Grange Croft, which is the name of the tram stop.
From the tram stop you can see the sign for Sheffield Mencap across Park Grange Road.
Note: The tram stop is Park Grange Croft, NOT Park Grange (the next stop up the hill).
A map of the location can be found here.
