NOTE: Just for the 5 weeks from Wednesday 30th October until Saturday 30th November we will be at the Quaker Meeting House at 1a Bourne Street, Wilmslow, SK9 5HD (next to the Wilmslow Guild – brown door in brick building in photo) whilst the Christmas Shop occupies our space in the Library. Please find a parking space in the street either in Bourne Street (you may need to drive some way down the road) or on neighbouring roads and not in the Guild car park. The QMH is 0.8 miles from the railway station and 0.6 miles from the Library.

On Thursday 28th November, both our class and annual Christmas lunch are at the Coach and Four in Wilmslow.

We will return to our usual room in the Library from 2 January 2025.

MATTS is located near the town centre of Wilmslow in a large, airy and sunny room in Wilmslow Library, SK9 1NW. Enter the library through the main door, turn left and go up the stairs. The room is immediately in front of you at the top of the stairs. Note that the main Library doors do not open until 10.00 AM on weekdays (9.00 on Saturdays), so on those days you will need to enter via the small fire door to the left of the main doors and walk up the stairs.

Travel:

We are a ten minute drive from the M56 near Manchester Airport with close motorway links to the M6 and M60.

We are a five minute brisk walk from Wilmslow mainline railway station with frequent high speed direct trains to Manchester, London and throughout the country. At least four trains each hour make the journey to Manchester City Centre in 15-20 minutes and at least one train each hour to London Euston, most in under 2 hours, some in 1 hour 47 minutes.

Parking: The main car park in front of Sainsbury’s (1 minute walk) only allows 3 hours. However, the section behind Hoopers (1 minute walk) allows up to 4 hours for £3.30. The section of the car park directly behind Sainsbury's, nearest to the 'Coach and Four' pub (2 minute walk) is for longer-term parking and costs £2.70 for 3 - 4 hours and £3.70 for 4-6 hours, but is sometimes full, especially after 9.30 AM. If you arrive early, there are almost never traffic wardens first thing, so you can buy your ticket just before entering the Library. In all the above you can recover some of the cost if you shop in Sainsbury's. Classes always finish by 1 PM.

The Broadway Meadow car park near the leisure centre is £2.10 for 3 - 4 hours and £3.00 for 4 - 6 hours and is a 7 minute walk.

You can park for free on the nearer part of Chapel Lane if you’re lucky enough to find a space or, more likely, on and off the Knutsford Road and around Lindfield Estate S, SK9 5JD. All of these are less than a 10-minute walk from the Library. Or, if you're happy to walk for 13 minutes, there are always spaces in the road in Gravel Lane.

Accessibility: Wilmslow Library meets all modern standards for accessibility.

Wilmslow is a small, pleasant, well-to-do suburban town with a mainline railway station set in Cheshire countryside close to Manchester Airport (the largest airport in the UK after Heathrow and Gatwick) and 11 miles from Manchester city centre.
