Going to Shrewsbury ?

Shrewsbury Town

Directions SY2 6ST

At the end of the M54 continue onto the A5. After about seven miles, there is a traffic island which is at the junction with the A49. Bear left at this island still following the A5. At the next roundabout take the 3rd exit onto the B4380 (Thieves Lane). Continue along Thieves Lane going straight over two roundabouts and this will lead you into Oteley Road. You will reach the stadium down further down Oteley Road on the left.

There is a large car park at the stadium, holding almost 700 cars, however, this is normally for permit holders only. Parking is prohibited in the nearby Retail Park and nearby streets, so to find some street parking you may have to drive a bit further away.

For any fans wanting to make a full day of a Saturday at Shrewsbury, the Meole Brace Park & Ride site, is only a 10-15 minute walk from the ground and is well signposted from the A5. You can park at the site, catch a bus into Shrewsbury town centre, find plenty of food and drink outlets, and then catch a return bus back to the site. Journey time between 10-15 minutes depending on traffic volumes. Please note that parking is provided for those using the Park & Ride.

Distance approx 86 miles 1 hour 35 mins

Pubs

The Brooklands Hotel, just off Meole Brace Island, about five minutes walk away. has about 100 car parking spaces which they charge a fee for parking. The 'Flippin Fish' Fish & Chip Shop is opposite the pub.

There is also the Charles Darwin Pub; 10 minutes walk away from, with 70 car parking spaces. There is also a good chippy opposite called the Tasty Plaice'.

The Charles Darwin Pub is in the opposite direction. From the stadium turn right along the B4380 Oteley Road. Take the second left into Sutton Road and the pub is down on the right.

There is a Retail Park nearby to the stadium, which has some eating outlets such as a McDonalds, Pizza Hut and a supermarket cafe.

By Rail
