Transport: From M25: Leave the Motorway at J.29, turning on to the A127
toward London. You will pass 2 service stations on you left, of which the
second is a Heron station. Immediately beyond this, turn left into the slip
road; this is Wingletye Lane. Go down this road to its end, there is a set
of traffic lights at which you turn right. You are now in Upminster Road,
facing uphill with a large church prominent at the top of the hill. As you
pass this church, turn right into Inskip Drive. The meeting hall is facing
you at the end of the road. There should be no problem parking in the vicinity.
From A12 (ie coming from London): At Gallows Corner turn right onto the
A127, towards Southend; or join the flyover approaching the roundabout,
which takes you onto the correct road. At the first set of traffic lights
turn right (to Hornchurch) onto Ardleigh Green Road. Follow this road into
Hornchurch town centre, then leave town on the Upminster Road. Inskip Drive
is first on the left after leaving the shops, just before the church. The
meeting hall is facing you at the end of the road. There should be no problem
parking in the vicinity. |
