All the facilities of this busy market town are available near the church. There is a large car park within easy walking distance off the High Street. Ringers requiring well-kept cheeses could do worse than visit T.O.Williams in the High Street. The locally produced Appleby's Cheshire can give more pleasure than even a well-struck course of Bristol.
The church is a ten minute walk from the railway station on the Shrewsbury-Crewe line.
