From the South and West
- If you are approaching
from the south on the M6 or the west on the A66, you firstly
need to make your way to the roundabout where these two roads
cross at junction 40 on the M6. At this roundabout, take
the road signposted "Penrith A592" (a black &
white sign). This is the first turning after the part-time
traffic lights.
- This road quickly
brings you to a small roundabout. Go straight on at
this.
- This will take you past
Aldi, Halfords, Focus DIY, the railway station and MacDonalds on
your left to reach another small roundabout in front of the ivy
covered Agricultural Hotel. Turn left here.
- Very shortly you come
to another small roundabout with Safeway supermarket on your
right. Go straight on and down the hill.(Note: A public
car park can be found by turning right half-way down this hill.
The church is only 5 mins walk away)
- At the bottom of the
hill, follow the road left and then the right-hand
lane which does a U-turn round some buildings. Immediately
after this U-turn, turn left into Portland Place. (If
you overshoot, keep right and you can go around the block again)
- At the other end of
Portland Place is a small roundabout. Penrith Methodist Church
is the large building opposite on the left.

From the East
- If you are approaching
from the east on the A66, it may be easiest to go all the way to
the M6 and follow the directions above.
Alternatively, you could turn right at the roundabout
where the A66 crosses the A6 and follow the A6 all the
way through Penrith town centre until you meet the above
directions at the roundabout by the Agricultural Hotel. (On your
right) Going straight on here takes you to the
roundabout at Safeways as described above..

From the North
- If you are approaching
from the north on the M6, leave the motorway at junction 41
and take the second exit from the roundabout.
(Signposted 'Penrith, Carlisle', '(A6)')
- After about a mile, you
will come to another roundabout. Turn right onto the A6
heading south.
- This road goes up a
hill and then down again into Penrith. Follow it to a mini
roundabout between two petrol stations. Go straight on
here.
- The road continues
down a narrow section between houses. As it opens out, you need
to give way to traffic coming in from the right. Go straight
on (you have no choice) but after just a short distance take
the first left into Portland Place. (If you miss this,
keep right and go around the block)
- At the other end of
Portland Place is a small roundabout. Penrith Methodist Church
is the large building opposite on the left.
