Visiting Us:

The Burgess Foundation can be found near Manchester’s universities, just off the main Oxford Road thoroughfare into the city centre. Read on for more details on our location.

We are open for archive visits and audience events. The daytime café will remain closed, although our licensed bar opens for events. We have increased our remote working, so it is currently worth emailing rather than phoning. Full contact details are here.

The building is wheelchair accessible, with an accessible toilet on the ground floor. If you have particular accessibility requirements, do speak to a member of staff. If you have Covid-19 symptoms, please do not come to the Burgess Foundation.
