What's the Ground Like?

Exit M5 at junction 16 (Signposted Filton) and join the A38 (South) towards Bristol City Centre. The ground is about five miles down the A38. You will pass the large British Aerospace works and further on, you will pass on your left the Inn on the Green and the Gloucester pubs. You then pass the Wellington pub on your right and continuing along the A38 Gloucester Road, turn left into Filton Avenue. The entrance to the Club car park is the second right down this road. There is a fair amount of street parking around the sides and back of the Wellington pub.

How to Get There By Car & Where to Park

From M4 take M32 until the end and then turn right on the large roundabout into the B4051.  Stay on here until you reach the Cheltenham Road (A38) where you take a left.  It is some distance up the hill but eventually you will see it on the right hand side beyond Strathmore Road.

By Train

The nearest railway station is Filton Abbey Wood, which is approximately 1.5 miles or 20-25 minutes walk away from the ground. More likely though you will end up at Bristol Parkway which is about two miles away from the ground and is really too far to walk from, so you are probably best to jump in a taxi or buses 73 & 74 run from the station past the stadium.
