Where to find left luggage in Barcelona Airport T1

The left luggage office in the T1 building is located next to lost property. It is on the second floor of the building - P2. At time of writing (March 2011), this floor has very little else of interest on it. So do not be alarmed to find yourself walking through a fairly deserted hall area to get to the office - this area is known as 'La Plaza'. The space will be the entrance hall for the metro station that will be arriving into Barcelona Airport - however, it could be a number of years before we see this.
