Map
Driving directions
West Grinstead (more a geographical area than an actual village) lies just off the A24 London to Worthing Trunk Road, about five miles south of Horsham. It is best approached by travelling south for 3/4 mile from the Buck Barn Traffic Lights (junction with the A272) and then turning left onto the B2135 road to Partridge Green, Ashurst and Steyning. The Shrine is approximately a further 3/4 mile, at the junction with Park Lane. Turn left into Park Lane – the Shrine carpark and church entrance is immediately on your right.
Alternatively, if approaching from an easterly direction (M23 / A23) travel on the A272 for approximately a mile and a half past Cowfold – in a westerly direction towards Billingshurst; turning left into Park Lane just past the tool hire and fish shops which are also on the left. The Shrine is at the bottom end of Park Lane, on the left-hand side of the road.

PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU ARE NOT DRIVING TO THE SHRINE, YOU ARE STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO TAKE A TAXICAB FROM HORSHAM. WHILE IT IS JUST ABOUT POSSIBLE TO DO SO BY BUS FROM HORSHAM OR PARTRIDGE GREEN, THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT AND THE SURROUNDING ROADS – without pavements – ARE DANGEROUS TO WALK ALONG, once you have left the bus (as there is not a bus stop anywhere near the church)!
