If you live in Gorton and you’re searching for a dentist, Thornley Park Dental is closer than you might think — we’re based in Denton, just over the Gorton border, and a number of our patients travel from Gorton and the surrounding area for their dental care.

We won’t pretend we’re on your doorstep. But for most of Gorton, getting to us is a short run along Hyde Road — and it’s a trip our Gorton patients make regularly, for everything from routine check-ups to urgent appointments.

Getting Here From Gorton

The journey from Gorton to our Denton practice is a short one:

  • By car or taxi: around 2 miles, roughly 5 minutes
  • By bus: the 201 runs from Gorton along Hyde Road into Denton. Get off at the Thornley Park stop on Manchester Road, near Wilton Grove, a short walk from the practice

Parking: We don’t have on-site parking, but free street parking is available nearby on the Dane Bank estate, just a short walk away. We’d ask that you park considerately, avoid blocking driveways, and be mindful of local residents when you visit.
