Directions to Quinton Village Hall.

Easy: Enter "School Lane, Quinton, Northampton NN7 2EA " into your satnav. Not "Village Hall"

It's no 5, but 1997 works better! Read on.

If you prefer to find it using other means

• Search for "1997 School Lane, Quinton, NN7 2EA"
• Do not Google “Quinton Village Hall”- it perversely finds different villages!
• The date stone with 1997 means Google Maps is convinced the hall is number 1997 on School Lane.
• Note - it's easy to find, despite all this
• Well, it's a storytelling venue. The feeling of its not existing on search engines adds to its mystique. Enjoy this!

From Northampton:

• Take A45 southbound, direction j15 of M1;
  Pass the Queen Eleanor Roundabout by Hardingsone, continue on A45 nearly 1mile
   
• take the second exit marked for Wootton. (Berry Lane junction).
  It’s a slip road leading to traffic lights.
Straight up the slip road, to where it meets the bridge over the dual carriageway.
 
• Left there, signed “Quinton” (Wooldale Road)
   
  ****
• 0.5 miles on, 3rd exit on roundabout, signed “Quinton”.
  Follow this country road for something approaching 1.5 miles.
   
• After the village sign for Quinton, either
  (i) pass Preston Deanery Rd on your left; after a bend you’ll come to School Lane on your left. Turn down there, the hall’s on your right towards the bottom; or...
  (ii) turn L onto Preston Deanery Rd, pass the church, turn right in the village centre, hall on your left.

From MK direction

A range of options, probably best researched to see which suits you best, but see Rule 1 above!!
These include

• Via Stony Stratford and Roade (A508) (Easy)
• Via Hanslope & Hartwell, (more back roads)
• Via Newport Pagnell & Stoke Goldington. (Further, but useful if M1 solid)

If on the A508

• Pass through Roade, and then pass a L turn to Blisworth
• Turn Right at the bottom of the slope, onto a small country lane.
• After a while it takes a sharp left, then crosses the M1, before leading you to Quinton.
• Turn right, then left into School Lane.
   
• If you miss that small country lane from the A508, stay on it cross the M1 at j15 (loads of roadworks as I write), pass Collingtree / Hilton turn, then take the slip road off the dual carriageway as you approach the first bridge over. Loop round to cross that bridge over the A45. Cross the little roundabout onto Wooldale Rd and follow instructions from *** as if coming from Northampton.

Parking:

The hall committee welcomes us to their village, it has also asked us to avoid driveways, of course, likewise filling space in front of houses with no off-road parking of their own. (Those just below the hall.)

There’s quite a bit of on-road parking on School Lane in front of the houses with their own big driveways. Please use the pavement side only.
There’s more space near the Church on Preston Deanery Rd.
