I note that there is an error in the directions to the swapmeet from the M6 on the BVWS website.
It says: Leave at J23 and head towards Manchester. Second left, onto B5207.
However, the 2nd left off the A580 is the A573 and, whilst it appears to be the faster route, the following directions don't work!
The B5207 is actually the fourth left turn off the A580 (but it is very much the long way round, although it would be ideal for anybody travelling westbound on the A580).
From the M6, I would suggest taking the A573, turning right onto the B5207, then following the directions as from the A58.
Virtually everybody uses SatNav these days but they are not compulsory! Here is a map which I hope will be useful.
