BY CARFROM THE FYLDE AND THE NORTH:You can find the church about two miles from the M6 J32 or the M55 J1. Simply follow the signs for the A6 Preston. After a couple of miles, shortly after a speed camera (note that the speed limit is 30mph), you will come to a set of lights with a Shell petrol station on one corner and a Royal Bank of Scotland on another. Turn left here. The church is on the left-hand side, just round the corner. Parking is available on the car parks at the front and rear of the church.
Parking is also available across the A6 at the Health Centre and Doctor's car park. SUNDAY & SPECIAL EVENTS ONLY. Please ensure that you park sensibly to avoid inconveniencing local residents. Try not to park on the local roads.
FROM THE SOUTH AND EAST:Leave the M6 at J31a on to the B6242. Take the third exit at the roundabout (following signs for Preston North End football club). Take the second exit (i.e. straight on) at the next roundabout. Turn left at the third (and last) roundabout. You should still be following the signs for Preston North End FC. Turn right at the traffic lights. You are now on Watling Street Road and should be able to see the White Hart pub shortly on your right. Follow this road for half a mile to the next junction. Take the right-hand lane at the traffic lights to continue along Watling Street Road. Continue straight ahead at the next lights. The church is at the end of the road just before the A6 traffic lights, on the right. Alternatively, continue north along the M6 to junction 32, taking the LH lane. This is signposted Blackpool and Garstang. Keep in the very LH lane to exit to the A6. Then follow the instructions as from the north. (above) BY BUSFrom the city centre bus station, catch a Stagecoach Longridge service No. 4C or the Lancaster / Morecambe service No. 40/41 up Garstang Road to Withy Trees, or the Preston Bus No. 23 to Lytham Road roundabout. It is then a 500m walk, east along Lytham Road. Preston Bus charges are shown here usually £2.00, but be warned that they do not give change, but you can use a contactless card. The Stagecoach 125 from Bolton can be taken from Preston Bus Station and stops outside our church on the way to Royal Preston Hospital. It is a regular service at least every 20 mins. BY TRAINPreston railway station is on the main London to Glasgow line. It is served by Avanti West Coast trains, Trans Pennine Express and Northern Rail. A Preston bus Park and Ride service No.2 runs past the railway station to the bus station.
