So, before I go through Knutsford on Friday, how do I find where the signs are on the map?

Hi Katherine. I'm not aware of any particularly clever method.
What I do is to go to mapstreetview.com, pick a spot on my intended approach road which I hope is far enough out, and shuffle inwards until I find what I'm looking for:
They're easy to miss, even when they're as bold as this one, which I found on my second pass. It generally pays not to rush.
Which road will you be approaching Knutsford on @Katherine ?

Probably through Tatton Park.
If you come from the Rostherne direction into the park, I can’t find any Knutsford signs. Once you exit the park, you’re already in the town!!
So next question, which way will you leave Knutsford?

If you go on open street map and query features the administrative boundary will come up. The signs will be on or near that boundary. You'll need to have Streetview open as well to look at the equivalent points for the signs.

Left on B5085 Knutsford Rd.
But I will do any necessary loops!
Perfect. As you head out of town you will go down a dip to some lights, after you go up the other side this will be on your right

Irlam. [no J] Knutsford. Lowton. Mosley Common.
The first 2 involved crossing fast roads to get to the sign.
I thought you'd like the shot with the plane coming into Manchester Airport.

I'm leaving J for a bit, but I have today done K-for-Knebworth.
Bit of a short ride, this one, as Knebworth is quite nearby and I'd actually just nipped out to get some shampoo.
I don't think a ten mile ride to get to a shop a mile away is in any way unreasonable.
