Directions St. Peter's Church |
We are situated at the centre of the village of Salesbury. Our parish covers not only Salesbury, but Copster Green and Wilpshire and is easily accessible from a wider area via good road and bus links.
If you are travelling by car, the main roads leading to the Church will be the A59 and the A666.
If you are travelling from East to West then you can take the A59 up to the Petre roundabout and then continue along the A59, signposted to Preston and the M6, reach the traffic lights at the crossroads at Copster Green, turn left onto Ribchester Road (B6245) and follow this road until you reach the centre of the village and St. Peter's is on the left approximately 300 metres after passing the Bonny Inn.
Alternatively, when you reach the Petre roundabout, take the A666 signposted to Blackburn and as you pass through Wilpshire, at the first set of traffic lights, (Wilpshire Hotel) turn sharp right onto Ribchester Road (B6245) and follow this road until you reach the Church in the centre of the village.
If you are travelling from West to East (from the Preston direction) take the A59 signposted Clitheroe, Skipton and Harrogate. Once you reach the traffic lights at the crossroads at Copster Green, turn right onto Ribchester Road (B6245) and follow this road until you reach the centre of the village and St. Peter's.
If you are travelling from the Blackburn area, travel towards the Brownhill roundabout and then pick-up the A666 towards Wilpshire. Once you reach the traffic lights at the Wilpshire Hotel, turn left onto Ribchester Road (B6245) and follow this road until you reach the Church which can easily be seen on your right as you approach the Salesbury common (Hazel Moor).
