How To Find Us
Before you travel
It is important to note that even though most of the space is on the first floor above Superdrug and JD Sports, we have entrances on the first floor (what3words ///riders.jabs.trendy) and ground floor (what3words ///camps.brand.spoon).
Driving to the centre
Although there is ample parking around Stockport town centre, the most convenient place to park if visiting the centre is The Merseyway Shopping Centre. Directly above us are the blue and orange zones. These zones are the main areas of parking accessed from St Petersgate and the bridge over Chestergate. Once into the car park drop down a level and the steps and lifts on the far side will take you to the first floor landing entrance.
Travelling by bus or train
If travelling by bus or train follow signs to the Merseyway Shopping Centre. When entering the centre we are in the middle between Superdrug and McDonald’s. In fact, if you look up to the first floor you will see our large sign on the side of the building.
- On-site Bicycle storage on the ground floor (please bring a lock for security)
- On-site changing, drying and shower facilities
