Swarkestone 2025
 

Date: 7th May 2022

Time: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

Venue: Errwood Sailing Club

Representative: Dave Wakelin

*** IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ***

The road between Buxton and Whaley Bridge (A5004 – Long Hill) will be closed on the day of the event. Visitors arriving from the South via Buxton will be able to access the club normally. Visitors coming from Whaley Bridge will be unable to access the club via that road. There are other minor roads to the west of the club that will be open however they are very narrow and could be problematic if towing a boat. The alternate route would be to take the A6 from Whaley Bridge to Buxton and then leave Buxton northbound on the A5004.
