Thanks BritInParis, but it might be possible via Ferry transport?

Ten years ago maybe; these days I very much doubt it. Legally the British authorities only need to accept you as a British citizen if you can present a British passport and the ferry company can refuse to board if they think they will held liable. When do you actually need to travel?

Probably cheaper and less stressful to go by train (although it might be a bit random if you're going tomorrow)
P.S. It's not the Embassy, but the Consulate, AFAIK at 16 rue d'Anjou.
