Route 1 North

Coming from Route 1 North (Or East)
Traveling from Bridgeport toward Stratford

Barnum Ave. & Main St. Stratford, Right

Right at the light.

Main St. is Route 113 South.

Curran Volkswagen is on that corner. 

Follow Main St. to Stratford Ave.

Past Town Hall on your right, Fire Station on your left.

Under the Railroad.

From the RR bridge, count four traffic lights as you continue on Main St., past signs for I-95:
The first traffic light is by the Congregational Church.
The second and third lights are close together, next to the St. James Catholic Church.

Continue past the Episcopal Church on your left. (Note: the golden rooster atop the steeple has musket ball holes in it courtesy of British soldiers occupying the town during the Revolutionary War.)

 

Left, onto Stratford Ave.

At the next light turn left onto Stratford Ave., Rt. 130.

A Mobil station is on your left, Keating Ford on your right.

We're on the Right

Just past the TD Banknorth Bank, across from the Dutchess Diner. Turn into the driveway before the colonial house.

Route 1 South

Coming from Route 1 South (Or West)
Traveling from Milford toward Stratford

Ooh, you picked the tricky one! The shortest way is to pick out Ferry Blvd. (Rt. 130) amongst the various ramps for East Main St. (Rt. 110), Barnum Avenue Cutoff (Rt. 1), I-95 South and a loop sending you back toward Milford. All this happens rather quickly, just past the Dock Shopping Center after you cross the Housatonic River into Stratford.

The easy way out is to follow Route 1 signs (Barnum Avenue Cutoff) past the Dock Shopping Center. Proceed up the hill, past shopping centers, first on your left, then on your right to Main St. (Route 113 South) intersection (light), landmark is Curran Volkswagen. Turn Left onto Main St. and use the directions from Route 1 North to follow Main St. to Stratford Ave.

If you want to brave it . . .
Here is the direct way from Milford/Devon:

Cross Housatonic River
Straight Past the Dock

As you cross from Milford to Stratford, look for the Dock Shopping Center on your right.

Your best bet here is to be in the LEFT lane. There's a light at the base of the bridge.

Straight Under I-95

Straight through another quick light -- and on under I-95 -- as traffic from the opposite direction feeds in from the left.

Do not take Route 110 which peels off to the right.

Follow signs for West 1 and South I-95.

Straight Still

As though you'll get on I-95 South.

You're now following signs for I-95 South and West 130.

Go up to the traffic light. Do not take the left option (Route 1 West) that bears off left before the light.

Go straight through the light, still in the left lane. 

(Note: The far right is the easy way out. That's Rt. 1 Barnum Avenue Cutoff, which takes you up to Main St. You go past Walmar & Home Depot. If you go this way, use Rt. 1 North directions to follow Main to Stratford Ave.)

Under 1-95

Take the MIDDLE OPTION from this light.

Head for Route 130 West.

You're still in the Left lane:
The right lane is an I-95 on-ramp.
Bear too hard to the left and you loop around back toward Milford.
So bear a little left then back right as you go under I-95.
Straight on Route 130 West

You should end up at a traffic light with a gas station ahead on your left. This is Ferry Blvd. Continue straight through the light.

There is another quick traffic light right after the first.

If you're here, you're home free!

Continue Straight

Count two lights more to Elm St.

You'll go past Blue Sky Diner and fish market, Ferry Blvd. changes to Stratford Ave. at intersection with Elm St.

Go straight through traffic light.

(If you are following signs to Stratford Festival Theater, do not turn left at this light as directed by the signs. Just continue ahead a half-block.)

We're on the Left, Ransom's Walk,

Turn in just after the Ransom's Walk complex, just past the Colonial house, before the TD Banknorth bank.

It's the second entrance into Ransom's Walk, NOT the one with the "Hair Inn" but the next left.

We're in the Colonial House,

that sits in front of the office complex.

Our entrance is on the side of the house.
