Ipswich Town
By Road– Directions
Follow the A14 around Ipswich, until you see the turning for Ipswich (A137). Stay on this road and you will eventually see the ground on your left. Bill Leggate adds 'there is extremely limited on-street car parking around the ground. There are however three pay and display parks in Portman Road with a total of about 800 spaces. It costs £3.50 to park your car there for the Saturday afternoon. Early arrival is recommended to ensure a space close to the ground. There also several town centre car parks within 10 minutes walk all of which are well sign posted.
There is also a Park and Ride site at the junction of the A12/A14, parking is free and return fare to town £2-90, but it closes at 19-00.
Disance approx 135 miles. 3 hours travel
Pubs
The main away supporters pub for many a season, the 'Drum & Monkey', has now declared itself a 'home supporters only' pub, following refurbishment. This makes the choice of drinking establishments for away fans very limited. In fact it is really just the Station Hotel, which is near to the ground and train station, where most visiting supporters will congregate. Other pubs in the area such as the Victoria, the Hare & Hounds and the Swan, are very much home pubs and are best avoided by visiting fans……
By Train
The ground is only a quarter of a mile away from Ipswich train station. You will see the ground as you come into the station. Ipswich is served by trains from London Liverpool Street and Peterborough.
