To reach the church by car

If travelling from the M6, leave the motorway at junction 27 then travel, as would visitors from Wigan, on the A5209 towards Parbold.
Go past the 'Wiggin Tree (Restaurant & Pub)', which is on the top of Parbold Hill.
Start to descend the hill and soon the church entrance and car park will be seen on the right.

If travelling from Parbold, Newburgh and Lathom travel on the A5209 towards Wigan and up Parbold Hill. Shortly after passing the speed camera the church entrance will be seen on the left.

To reach the church by bus or train

Unfortunately, no buses stop outside the church on Sundays, although the 639 Bus Service does so during the week, operating hourly between Wigan, Parbold and Skelmersdale.
Visitors can visit Christ Church on Sundays if they travel to Parbold Station by train and then walk up Parbold Hill. For the return journey, one of our church members should be able to provide a lift back to Parbold station by car.

The red cross on the small map above indicates the approximate position of Christ Church which is on the A5209 between Parbold and Appley Bridge.
