Car Parking:
Parking is very limited in the surrounding streets. However, if you arrive early enough it is available. There are also a few pay and display car parks in the local area for a reasonable charge.
Car parking at the stadium is for permit holders only.
Don’t think about parking in the nearby Tesco store, as the car park is patrolled on matchdays and you may end up having your car towed away.
