The SfP office is based at Bolton Music Centre, which is 2 miles west of Bolton City Centre and close to the M61.  To see it on a map please click here, or here for more detail.

Bolton Station has a taxi rank. Lostock Station is nearer but is not as convenient for some train journeys and has no taxi rank.

Directions from the M61 motorway are shown below.  To view/print these with a plan of the approach to the Music Centre, please click here.

From the M61 Junction 5

Take the Bolton A58/A676 exit off the roundabout.  Follow the road downhill, pass a garden centre on the left and continue on to the traffic lights. Go straight through the lights and follow the road uphill. After nearly 800 metres (half a mile) look out for a small signpost on the right-hand side of the road pointing left to Ladybridge School. Turn left here into Dealey Road (Wigan Road Van Sales is on the corner). After 150 metres turn left into Junction Road, then as Junction Road curves to the right you will see New York on your left. Turn into New York and Ladybridge School will be directly in front of you.

Park in the main car park at the front of school. Walk towards the school and follow the path (top left corner of car park as you look at the map) round onto the road that leads to the back of the school. [The main school gates for cars are usually locked.] At the end of the road there is a gateway to the right leading into a courtyard. Go through here and straight ahead under a porch are metal/glass double doors. This is the entrance to the Music Centre: ring the bell on the left.
