[font=]The Norbreck Castle is to the north of Blackpool. I usually go to the end of the M55 then follow the A5230 past the airport WATCH OUT FOR SPEED CAMERA’S and through the illuminations. The Norbrek is north of the end of the illuminations on the promenade. This is the long way round but I do not have a sat nav and I find it easier.  O0 [/font]
