  Andrews-Lindsay 1 is a pertinent open cluster granted it may host the
planetary nebula PHR 1315-6555, yet ambiguities linger concerning its
fundamental parameters (>50% scatter). New multiband BVJHW(1-4) photometry for
cluster and field stars, in concert with observations of recently discovered
classical Cepheids, were used to constrain the reddening and velocity-distance
profiles along the sight-line. That analysis yielded the following parameters
for the cluster: E(J-H)=0.24+-0.03, d=10.0+-0.4 kpc (d(JH)=9.9+-0.6 kpc,
d(BV)=10.1+-0.5 kpc), and log(t)=8.90+-0.15. The steep velocity-distance
gradient along l~305 indicates that two remote objects sharing spatial and
kinematic parameters (i.e., PHR 1315-6555 and Andrews-Lindsay 1) are
associated, thus confirming claims that the PN is a cluster member (e.g.,
Parker et al.). The new distance for PHR 1315-6555 is among the most precise
yet established for a Galactic PN (err_d=4%).
