How to Find Us by Car:

Leave the M62 motorway at junction 21, and head toward Milnrow. At the first junction (second set of traffic lights) go right and immediately left again, up a very steep hill. Near the crest of the hill, turn left following signs for Hollingworth lake country park, and travel along the whole of Wildhouse Lane.

There is a T-junction and mini-roundabout at the end. Go right, and follow the road (Hollingworth Road) to its end. This will involve two hair-pin bends. At the very end, you will see a railway bridge to your left.

Go left, under the bridge, past a large Church on your right. Soon afterwards, go straight across the mini-roundabout, and follow the road for nearly two miles. St John's Church is on your left just before a stretch of dual carriageway.
