By Road

From the M621

Turn off at Junction 7 out on to the A61 roundabout.

Take the exit signposted to 'Stourton'. Take the first right, down Queen St, near the Jet garage. At the bottom of Queen St, turn right, then left at the traffic lights on to Skelton Grange Rd (signposted to "Skelton Grange Centre"). Drive straight on to the private section of the road, over the bridge across the canal and river. Turn left here and then our entrance road is a short distance along on the right.

Note: Our car park is too small to cater for large meetings and events, in which case we use the National Grid car park. Once across the bridge the carpark is ahead of you - turn right and use the gated entrance. Inside the gate turn left and drive to the far end to park, there is a pedestrian gate that leads through to our building.
