From the North
Back to 'How To Find Fernlea Cottage'
You need to get to the A55 outer ring road which runs around Chester, taking either:
- M53 (south) from Liverpool (toll tunnels), or:
- M6 to J20, followed by the M56 (westbound) then the M53 following signs for Chester & North Wales.
Follow signs for M53 / A55 Chester and North Wales (the M53 turns into the A55 west of Chester)
Leave the A55 at the junction with the A51, taking the 3rd exit at the roundabout above the motorway, and following signs for Chester and the A41 (Whitchurch). Make sure you stay in the left lane as you leave the roundabout.
There is a set of traffic lights very shortly after leaving the roundabout from the A55 - turn left at these (there is a filter lane), following signs for A41 (Whitchurch).
Carry on along the dual carriageway for about 1/2 mile. Stay in the left hand lane until you come to a large roundabout just after a pedestrian crossing. Take the 1st exit and turn left at the roundabout, following signs for A41 (Whitchurch).
Now follow directions for 'From Chester via the A41'
