I just had a quick look and came up with the following.

There is a Redclyff Road bordering the site M147LG.

Or Trafford Boulevard M417JN.

And Barton Dock Road where there are a number of postcodes

M417PA, M417JX, M417BQ, M417RU.

In the standard POI category of "Shopping Centre" it's listed as The trafford center"

It does indeed have a POI under shopping centres; however my piece of advice would be to not use it once you're within sight of the centre.

I followed it once and it basically tries taking you in circles around it through heavy traffic and past a lot of enterances; basically it's fine to get there; just not in to the place. As always once you see signs then keep it's probably worth following them.

Agree with the above, I go all the time.

Use you Sat Nav to get you to the M60 at Trafford then it is well signposted off the motorway from Junctions 9 and 10

Cheers

I agree with the above about about ignoring the POI once you get about a mile or so away, and follow the signs off the motorway.
Also don't forget your walking boots and credit card!!
It is big and there are lots of car parks so make a note of the one you use for your return. or use youde sat nav!!

It's not THAT big!!

I used to work there as a redcoat up untill last week. Basically use your sat nav to get you there but once you come off the motorway you cant miss it from either junction 9 or 10.

Like wazzzzupmate mentioned there are a lot of carparks (14) so its a good idea to make a note of the first shop you see when you enter as a lot of people lose their cars!
