I was driving there last night, and ended up going into High
Holborn and, through the one-way system into Southampton Row.

Any "Knowledge" black-belts out there?

I think there is a right hand turn from Gt Queen Street onto Kingsway.
However, if not, you can cross straight over Kingsway and then circle
Lincolns Inn Fields (it's one-way so it's like a roundabout) and come
back onto Kingsway via the short southern spur that links up with
Kingsway.

And here's some black-belt (or at least grey-belt) knowledge for you -
there's a public lavatory at the east side of Lincoln's Inn Fields
open 8am to 10pm which is a favourite with cabbies to relieve
themselves of their excess tea.
