The venue lists Lurke Street Multi-Storey, MK40 3HZ, as its nearest car park (bunyanmeeting.co.uk). It is less than 2 minutes' walk away, making it a practical choice when you want to leave the car close to Mill Street (dayoutwiththekids.co.uk). The museum opens Tuesdays to Saturdays from 11am to 4pm, with last entry at 3:30pm (bunyanmeeting.co.uk). The museum address is 38 Mill Street, Bedford, MK40 3HD, while the listed multi-storey address is MK40 3HZ (bunyanmeeting.co.uk). ## Mill Street and Surrounding Bedford Parking at Busy Times There is no public onsite parking at the attraction, and pay-and-display parking is available in the surrounding streets (panaceamuseum.org). Mill Street is therefore better treated as an arrival and drop-off street than as a dependable place to wait for a space. The street details matter particularly when the museum is busy, because on-street bays are shared with other town-centre visitors. Opening hours of Tuesdays to Saturdays, 11am to 4pm, create the main daytime demand for spaces close to the site (bunyanmeeting.co.uk). Pre-booked groups and schools have entry at 3:30pm (bunyanmeeting.co.uk), which can add a later arrival period around Mill Street.
