How to find us

Knaresborough St John Primary School can be found near the bus station. Make your way up the High Street to the traffic lights (intersection with Briggate and Park Row). Turn left into Park Row. Follow the road round as it swings first left then immediately right again. After about 150 metres, the road will turn left again, with Stockwell Road going off down the hill to the right. Stay on Park Row, but the school is on that corner. Drive across the front of the school. Immediately after the pedestrian crossing is the entrance to the car park.

In case all that sound a little complicated, here's a map!
