Directions

Visiting by train:

The nearest railway station is Goostrey, on the Crewe to Manchester line, approximately 2.5 miles from Jodrell Bank. Train times can be found on Northern Rail's website.

To walk from the station: turn right out of the station car park and walk to the church. Turn right immediately past the church. Stay on this lane for approximately 2 miles. At one point the telescope will be on your right and you appear to be walking to the left, this is correct, please do not be tempted to follow the telescope. Eventually, there is a right hand bend and a railway bridge. The entrance drive is just over the railway bridge. Please note this is narrow country lane without pedestrian footpaths.

Alderley Edge, Macclesfield, Knutsford and Holmes Chapel are all within a 25 minute taxi ride.
