Entering St. George's Town from the direction of the Airport or Hamilton you will soon see the brick steps leading up to St. Peters Church on your left . A short distance after that you will see Somers Supermarket also on your left on the corner. Turn left at Somers Supermarket and then first right onto Blockade Alley (you will see the road sign). Crooked Elbow is directly ahead at the very end of Blockade Alley. It is a large light yellow house with a balcony. It has dark green trim and shutters. There is a large Poinciana tree in the garden. Ask to be dropped off at the corner and walk up the steps or turn left and drive up between two stone pillars on your right.
If you walk into the porch/carport you will see a small black letter box on the wall on the left, where you will find the key. Continue on through the porch and turn left where you will see the wooden french/glass door which is the entrance (see photo below). Let yourself in.
