WHERE AND WHEN
|
From 1st June 2008 there are some important changes to Penrith Chess Club's arrangements for meeting.
We are now open on THURSDAY evenings from 7.30pm. And we meet at the BEACON SOCIAL CLUB, Duke St, Penrith, Cumbria CA11 7NB.
|
The club meets in the large first floor room, which is up the stairs on the right hand side of the bar. Click here for a
map showing the club's location.
There are a few Thursdays when the room has other uses and the club does not meet. In 2008 these are 12th June, 14th August, 11th September,
9th October, and 11th December.
PARKING
In the evenings there is free
parking in the street and local car parks.
On Saturday afternoons, when there is one-hour disc parking in the streets, the best place to park is the
Bluebell Lane car park.
