Walk down Market St to Cross St, cross the road and walk about 30 yards then turn left into St Anns square.
Walk about 80 yards, turn right, the road in front of you is Deansgate, turn left and walk for about half a mile untill you see Quay St which crosses Deansgate.
Turn right onto Quay St and walk down untill you see Granada Studio's on your left.
I hope this helps,,,
Pat M.......Your miles away its nowhere near the Sawyers,,,

You could get metrolink tram.
Eccles or Altrincham Tram to St Peters Square. £1.10 return from Piccadilly Station
When you get off tram turn right onto Peter Street. Cross over Deansgate at traffic lights and continue along Quay Street where you will come to Granada Studios on your left just past the Esure building.

Its not far at all,about a 10 minute walk.
The easiest way would be to go through the city centre to Deansgate,just ask people the way to it,walk straight down there and turn left at the Sawyers Arms pub and the studios are there.
We are a friendly lot,if you get lost ,just ask.

Take Metroshuttle 3 from the front of the station (its free and runs frequently). It goes past the studio and the driver can tell you when to get off.
Its a lot more than 10 minutes walk.

A taxi wont cost you the earth,its Manchester not London,as everyone is telling you it is not far ,but you could still get soaked if its pissing down.

Picadilly is on the far right of the map. You can just see "ada ios" near top far left which is Granada Studios - not far to walk
