My Alternative

(This avoids queues at the end of the A 628 Woodhead Pass.)

Leave Holmfirth and take A 635 over the moors to Greenfield. 
Take A 635 to Mossley and onto Stalybridge. 
Keep on A 635 round Ashton bypass (dual carriageway) and follow signs for M 60. There is a tricky
roundabout at the end of the by pass.
Take A 635 towards Manchester and then join M 60 signposted Stockport.

Follow A 558 to Expressway A 533 and follow that for about 4 miles.
Then follow signs for Liverpool / M 57.  
Go across Runcorn Bridge and follow signs for Manchester / M 62 and Halton Stadium.  
Leave Expressway and turn right at roundabout.
Go to next roundabout and turn left. 
Go straight on at next roundabout, past playing fields on left and ground is on the right.

Alternative 2:  You can go via the A 628 Woodhead Pass but long queues are usually encountered on
the approach to the M 67.
Take M 67 and follow signs for Manchester Airport on M 60. 
Leave at Junction 4  – join M 56 then follow as above
