Countryside Score Event 1

Ye Olde Park Gate Inn, Over Peover, WA16 8TU.

Directions:  From Knutsford, take the A50 southbound, and after 4km turn left/east at Stocks Lane, which is the turning for Radbroke Hall (Barclays) and Over Peover. The pub is found on the left (north) 2km from the A50 junction.  Alternatively, it is possible to reach the pub from Chelford on the A537 (Macclesfield-Knutsford Road) and/or from the A34 - but you will need a map or Satnav!  If you find yourself at The Dog Inn at Peover Heath, you need to be 1km further west

The Park Gate has its own car park:  Please park prettily. If there is insufficient space in the pub car park, please park on-street nearby, making sure that residents can access their drives unhindered.

If you’d like to eat at the pub, please order your food before your run, saying when you’d like it to be served. It’s a Samuel Smith’s pub, so both food and draught beers are good value
