Parking Advice for event From the NORTH - Exit the M6 at Holmes Chapel / Middlewich ( JCT 18 ) From the South - Exit the M6 at Sandbach ( Jct 17 ) Then follow the signs for Congleton using the carparks postcode CW12 1EJ which basically should bring you to the Clayton Bypass by the Fire Station at a roundabout, the Orange Tree on your left. Take your 2nd exit and proceed down to the roundabout with Shell on your left and a large TESCO to your left also . Go straight over the roundabout heading towards the traffic lights at the top of the brow. Take the right filter lane at the traffic lights, sign posted Town Centre / Biddulph. HOWEVER, if you take the A34 route instead from Stockport instead of the M6 ) you will come to these same traffic, but from the opposite direction and you need to turn left for sign posted TOWN CENTRE / Biddulph Follow the road down the bank over the River Dane Bridge and you come to a large roundabout. Take your 2nd exit, which infact is really straight over onto a dual carriageway ( ie Mount Batton Way ) go through the traffic lights - you'll see Morrisons, Congleton library and Congleton Police Station on the right. When you arrive at the roundabout after these traffic lights, go around the roundabout, back on yourself (on the same dual carriageway ) HOWEVER, If coming through Biddulph, go towards Congleton Railway Station then down the Park Lane to the Traffic Lights / roundabout - TURN LEFT Once on the dual carriageway turn your FIRST LEFT by the POLICE station, go up a short brow turning immediate LEFT into Bank St, go round the right hand bend ( its 2 way btw ) and you will find the carpark to your left, you can't go anywhere else. THIS CAR PARK IS FREE !! Once parked up, leave the carpark, go LEFT by foot up the one way to Lawton Street, once you get there, which is only a matter of 20mtrs you will see the Town Hall down to your right, which you cant miss due to its clock tower. The only other suitable long stay carpark, is at Princess Street which is basically behind MORRISONS ( postcode CW12 1DF ) but it is chargeable, as the shorty stay ones are too. !!!!

This maybe of interest to you from a chat group in 2008 “”Martin bailey here my dear is a memory of the golden years of soul music,i was in the stinky toilets of the golden torch in tunstall with my mate phil having a row about whether or not a dog barks in the second chorus of one wonderful moment. it does i swear. we only ever heard the record at the torch or later at the bali hai in newcastle under lyme on a sunday nightso we never really settled the argument. daft what you remember isn't it but i swear whenever i am passing through smoke on trent or up porthill bank into wolstanton ( watlands youth club forever)i keep my eyes peeled for wonderful moments and barking dogs.great show mary play us the dog bark for old times sake.””
