the A684 to Sedbergh. About 200 yds past the start of the 30mph limit
on the
outskirts of Sedbergh take the very sharp right turn onto the A683

mile on from this junction the entrance to Brigflatts Lane appears on

Kirkby Lonsdale, cross the River Lune on the A65 and take the A683
north up the vale of the Lune. After about 6 miles the road crosses the

Hall on the left) the entrance to Brigflatts Lane appears on the right just beyond a lay-by
on the left (see parking advice below) and indicated with a finger signpost “Friends
Meeting House 1675”
From the East (Dentdale, Garsdale, Wensleydale) and the
North East (Kirkby Stephen)
Follow
signs for Sedbergh and in the town exit on the A684 towards Kendal and
the M6. On the outskirts of the town,just beyond the petrol station on the left, bear left onto the A683 for Kirkby
Lonsdale. About ½
mile on from this junction the entrance to Brigflatts Lane appears on
the left immediately before a lay-by on the right (see parking advice
below.)
Parking
There is
extremely limited parking close to the meeting house (about three or
four places if people park considerately) and those who are able to
walk the 150 yards or so are advised to park in the lay-by on the
A683.
Those with mobility difficulties may want to
investigate if there is space in the lane and, if they are passengers,
can always be dropped off at the meeting house. If you need a near by
parking space and are coming during the busy summer period contact the
Warden to discuss your needs (Tel. 015396 20005).
At quiet times minibuses may be accommodated in the lane (contact the
Warden to check arrangements).
Large coaches must park in the lay-by or drop passengers in the lay-by
and park elsewhere.
