The carriage ring at Elizabeth Gate, just off Kew Green, is our designated area for the safe set-down and pick-up of visitors travelling by coach. We ask that our coach parties bear the following in mind when traversing the green and using the carriage ring:

• A time slot for coach arrival must be booked in advance of your visit by contacting [email protected]

• No parking is permitted in the carriage ring and the maximum wait time is 20 minutes

• Please be advised that we share Kew Green with a school. We ask that our coach visitors avoid pick-ups and drop-offs between 3–4pm during term time.

• In order to ensure a smoother flow of traffic around Kew Green, we recommend navigating Kew Green one-way, as shown on the map below.
