Parking is available for unloading/loading at the front of the Town Hall for a limited period but after that vehicles must be relocated to a car park.

Parking spaces (see map) are available at Friarwood Lane Car Park. Alternative car parks are marked on the map. Most parking is around a five-minute walk away.

Amenities
The rooms we shall be using are upstairs on the first floor. There is a lift for disabled visitors or those with mobility difficulties, with toilets nearby. The Assembly will take place in the main hall.
