Where in the Northwest? (England I take it not the UK?) Type B+E trailer test into yell.com and state an area. I've just done it for Lancashire and there's loads.

Not the tiny roads around the castle I hope? That would be the worst place to take a test

No just the main roads and a few bits of the A55 the test is much longer than the normal driving test my route took me over an hour.
