Directions and arrangements for Chatton on Friday 28th

We should meet at the village hall, ready to warm up/rehearse at 6.45pm

Take the B6348 off the A1 (signposted to Wooler and Chatton, the first road on the left after the Purdy Lodge services/petrol station.)

On entering the village you will go over a stone bridge crossing the River Till, then take the first road on the left. The village hall is the second building on the right and was the old school (it looks like an old school)

There appears to be on-street parking outside the village hall.

The church is a little further on (about 200yds)  -  up the road and then turn left along a dead-end road where the church is at the end. Postcode of the church is NE66 5PY.

We are advised not to drive down the dead-end road to the church as it is likely to be very busy for the earlier opening of the flower festival.  So after the rehearsal you may want to leave your car at the village hall and walk the 200 yards to the church.
