6.7 miles: Turn RIGHT onto Bolton Road, (A6176)

WATCH OUT!
This junction can be a bit difficult as there are several roads coming together.
Position yourself as far right as you are able, and take your time.

After turning you should be able to see church tower.

6.8 miles: First RIGHT into Beaufort Grove; just BEFORE the church.

If you miss this turning; use the next left onto Grove House Road to turn round.

The Hall is opposite the church on Beaufort Grove. Parking is to the rear and in the roadside bay. Please do not park beyond the hall as this blocks access. Cars parking in the bay should park at 90O to the pavement. This ensures as many as possible are catered for.

RAIL/BUS TRAVELLERS

If possible try to come in to the Interchange, as the bus stop is nearer and easier to find.

Bradford Interchange: Depart Bradford Interchange via main exit.  Go straight on across Hall Ings at the pedestrian crossing. Immediately to your LEFT is a series of bus shelters. You needs 1st stand H3: RED LINE: 640/641.
Return Journey:
The bus will turn onto Market Street by the Natwest Bank. Get off here, and continue along Market Street until the end.
The Interchange is to your left and you should be able to see the sign.

Foster Square: Bear RIGHT as you come off the platform. Go between two sculptures and up slope towards Centenary Square. Cross Cheapside at the pedestrian outside the Midland Hotel. Turn LEFT and walk towards the Barclays Bank. Turn RIGHT at the far side of Barclays into Market Street. Still heading towards Centenary Square you will see a series of bus shelters. You need stand M3: RED LINE: 640/641.
Return Journey:
Once the bus turns by the Natwest Bank, get off on Market Street.

Both: You want St. James Church Hall, opposite Kingsdale Crescent. The full fare is £1.10 and the driver should give change. The Journey is approximately 10 minutes. Look out for Peel Park on the left; The Bolton pub on your right. After the bus stops for Ashbourne Stores get ready to leave. You should be able to see the church steeple. The next stop is yours. Cross the road into Beaufort Grove. The hall is the building opposite the church.

TAXI
I have spoken with the licensing organisation and they say drivers are only obliged to carry guide dogs. Any other pet is at their discretion. My impression is that most drivers are not going to be keen.
