Mileage from High Wycombe =  210 miles

Take the normal route to northbound M6 (M40, M42). Leave the motorway at J29 and take the M65 (signed Burnley, Blackburn). Leave the M65 at Junction 7 and at the roundabout take the A6185 signed Clitheroe. At the traffic signals after 0.4 miles turn right onto the A678 signed Padiham. Follow the road over the canal bridge to the next set of traffic lights. Here turn right onto the A680 signed Accrington. After 0.6 miles take the first left after the Crown PH into Livingstone Road.

If you decide to use the M6 toll road, it will cost you £4.50 each way. Some M6 service areas to break the journey are at Hilton Park, Stafford, and Knutsford (108, 127 and 160 miles from Wycombe respectively).

This is available on the streets surrounding the club and, for a small donation, on land adjacent to the ground belonging to a local amateur club.

Accrington station is about a mile from the ground. Directions - proceed down the hill passing over the main Blackburn road. At the main roundabout, cross over and head up the hill passing the Aldi supermarket. At the top of the hill, turn left (Whalley Road). Continue along this road past the 'Grey Horse' and 'Oaklea' pubs. Turn right into Livingstone Road, and the ground is on the left.



Around the Ground:

The nearest pub is the 'Crown' just behind the ground on Whalley Road. This welcomes all fans. The 'Whitakers Arms' is situated about 200 yards away from the old Peel Park ground from the 1960's era of Stanley. The 'Grey Horse' is just a two minute walk from the ground heading towards the town centre. Just opposite the latter is the Oaklea Fish and Chip shop. Lancashire famous Hollands Pies are available at the ground.
