Dartmouth Park: what to know before moving day
The park itself has a community orchard. The roads that circle and border it include The Roundway, Park Avenue, St Andrew's Avenue, St Andrew's Grove and St Andrew's Close. St Andrew's Church and Park Lodge are on St Andrew's Avenue, which makes a good landmark to give.
Heading towards the town centre, Queens Road, Queens Grove, Ashfield Road, Marina Crescent and Worrall Street fill the space before Fountain Street, where The Morley Academy stands along with a newsagent and a bakery. To the south, Scatcherd Lane leads to the grounds of Morley Rugby Football Club and Morley Cricket Club, and the Scotchman Lane allotments are close by. If your move falls on a match day at the rugby or cricket ground, mention it so we can plan the timing.
How the van gets to Dartmouth Park
The A650 is the road in from Bradford: through Tong Street, past Drighlington and Gildersome Street into Bruntcliffe, where Bruntcliffe Road leads on towards the park and Morley. From the motorway, junction 27 of the M62 at Gildersome is the nearest exit. Allow roughly 20 to 30 minutes from Bradford to the park, as an estimate.
The drive from Bradford is roughly 20 to 30 minutes. That is an estimate from route data, not a timed run, and traffic changes it.
