Going to Scunthorpe?

Directions

By Car

The ground is on the outskirts of Scunthorpe, which makes it very easy to find from the motorway. Leave the M180 at Junction 3 and take the M181 for Scunthorpe. At the end of this motorway, you will see the ground on your right. Turn right at the first roundabout onto the A18 and right again into the large car park at the ground, which costs £2 and takes 600 cars.


By Train

Scunthorpe station is over two miles away from the ground. Therefore a taxi is probably the easiest way to reach the stadium. However, if you have time on your hands and are feeling fit….. Turn left out of the station and head towards the crossroads (facing a church) and turn right into Oswald Road, going past a set of traffic lights and the Honest Lawyer and Blue Bell pubs. At the next traffic lights turn left into Doncaster Road (where there a number of fast food outlets).

Then just go straight down this road and you will eventually reach Glanford Park on your left. Otherwise catch the number 7 or 8 Yellow Line bus from the bottom of Doncaster Road (outside the Atlantis Chippy) down to the ground….


Train takes 2 hours 30 mins there but over 3 hours 20 mins on the way back and last train back for Saturday night is 19-15

Off peak return £27-40

Where to Drink

There is one pub right at the entrance to the ground called 'The Old Farmhouse', which  welcomes all fans but no colours are allowed. There is another pub near the ground called the Berkeley, a favourite haunt for away supporters. To find this Sam Smiths pub go past the ground (or park there first) and follow the main road towards Scunthorpe and it is on the left hand corner of the first roundabout you reach.

If coming by train, then the Honest Lawyer on Oswald Road is well worth a visit. Although a modern pub inside, it has been listed in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide and has a number of beers on offer. Also on Oswald Road is the Blue Bell which is a Wetherspoons outlet.
