At the fourth mini roundabout (immediately after a pedestrian crossing, Bus Station a short distance away on the left) turn RIGHT.

On this street you will pass through a few sets of pedestrian crossings and pass various shops. Just after Cranstons Butchers and immediately before the Victorian Tap pub (formerly the Tap and Spile) turn LEFT onto the B6306 (note – narrow entrance).
-
The road climbs uphill. After a few hundred metres turn RIGHT onto the Dipton Mill Road, junction signed Whitley Chapel, Dye House & Juniper, and HGV Slaley & Blanchland (B6306).

The road winds up and down, crossing two narrow river bridges. After the second you climb a short bank with a couple of houses on the right hand side. At the top, the road you are on bears left and a minor road joins from the right. The main road is signed Whitley Chapel and Slaley. Turn RIGHT onto the unsigned minor road (caution, the turn has poor visibility).
