How to Find Buckland-in-Dover

The map has marked on it St Andrew's Church, St Nicholas Church and the Rectory. You may zoom in and out, change the format to see the buildings etc and get driving directions from anywhere (but see below). You will also find marked on the maps the area of the two Parishes which now form the combined Parish of Buckland-in-Dover.

BUT if you are trying to reach St Andrew's Church or the Rectory . . .

No through road

At the time of writing, the map and some Sat Nav devices do not take into account that most of Crabble Meadows is a footpath and vehicles cannot get through.

You can drive from London Road (by Buckland Bridge) along Crabble Meadows to St Andrew's Church (though parking is very limited).

You CANNOT drive along Crabble Meadows to the Church from Crabble Avenue/Hillside Road. (You can walk, though, in less than 5 minutes, and parking is easier there).

A further complication is that London Road from Dover town centre to Buckland Bridge is one-way. Thus if you are heading towards Dover on the A256 (Crabble Hill), you will see Buckland Bridge (and the Rectory) on the right but will have to proceed towards Dover until you can take a right turn (Lorne Road by a cake shop), then right again onto London Road, heading away from Dover. As you pass pedestrian lights and the road swings to the right over the bridge, carry straight on. The Rectory is on your immediate left and St Andrew's Church is about 300 metres along Crabble Meadows.

Fortunately, there are no such problems locating St Nicholas Church, situated on The Linces almost opposite the Wheelwrights Arms
