Walsall

Directions

The ground is right next to the M6, in fact you can see it from the motorway just north of the RAC Control Centre. Unfortunately, this stretch of motorway normally has a large traffic jam on it, on both Saturday lunchtimes and weekday evenings, so allow yourself some extra time to get there. 

From M6 South:
Leave the M6 at Junction 7 and take the A34 towards Walsall (beware though of speed cameras on this stretch of dual carriageway). At the end of the dual carriageway turn left at the Bell Inn public house into Walstead Road (sign posted Bescot Stadium, Bescot Station Park & Ride). Continue straight on this road for two miles. You will come to Bescot Stadium and entrance to the away end on your right.

From The M6 North:
Leave the M6 at Junction 9 and take the A461 towards Walsall. Bear right on to the A4148 (Wallowes Lane) and turn right at the second set of traffic lights. You will see the ground on your left. 

Car Parking:
There is a good sized car park located at the ground (cost £3) and behind the away stand, which lends itself to a quick getaway after the match.  Bescot Railway Station also offers car parking for £2. Alternatively there is some street parking to be had off Wallowes Lane. Ian Stevens advises, 'avoiding parking on the nearby Morrisons Supermarket car park (built on the site of the old Fellows Park), as unless you can prove that you are shopping there, you run the risk of being wheel clamped'. 

Pubs

The King George V in Wallowes Lane is okay. It is about a ten minute walk away from the stadium, opposite the Morrisons Supermarket. If you are walking from the stadium, go out of the official car parks and down towards McDonalds. Go past McDonalds on your right and take a left hand turn into Wallowes Lane. At the end of the lane turn left onto the main road and the pub is just setback on the left. Away fans though should avoid the Fulbrook pub near to the ground

Gary Cotterill informs me; 'at the stadium there is the Saddlers Club, which normally allows small numbers of away fans in at a cost of £1, but you need to arrive there early'.
