I always wondered what the entrance was like and where to go so when i was there today i took a picture.

It didnt come out as well as i'd hoped but hopefully it will make things easier for those going there soon.

At the very back on the picture, the road straight ahead is North Audley Street. You will probably come down there towards the embassy if you come from Bond Street tube station. Goulds is on that street. It will be on your right as you walk down (left in picture). The buildings are the two security buildings. The one furthest away in the picture is the Immigrant services one. The one closest is the Citizen Services one. They have security scanners inside and boxes to put belts and watches etc in. Once cleared, you will exit through the other side of the building and onto the embassy grounds. Left around the building for Citizen Services, right around the building for Immigrant Services.

There was a desk with two women in blue jackets in between the two buildings when i got there, but by the time i got out they were gone. They are the ones you have to go to first before going to security.

Thanks for sharing :)

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

Thank you so much for sharing this. Having this "street view" which google cannot give us of the embassy has just made me feel a little easier about what to expect when I get there :)

Alan, this video shows exactly what happens on interview day, but the questions they pose will be geared toward a fiancé rather than student.

We were in the Citizen Services side but i assume its pretty much the same in the other side. But it was like a doctors waiting room with childrens toys (probably only that side because they do CRBA) and then bank style booths. They had Argos style screens which happened to shut down after about an hour then they just called the numbers.
