'Orns Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I'm driving and i aint got a clue where i,m going , wing it i think(cue bartolona hope you know the way) Easiest way is down the A46 heading for Stroud. Find the biggest hill you can find in Nailsworth and head for the top! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then turn around and drive back down the hill to the bottom so you can park. I've done it. Twice. It's annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsKev Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Id advise you to get there before 1.30 if you wish to park at/by the ground. As for directions drive into Nailsworth, there is a mini roundabout where there is a sign post for the New Lawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Chris Posted July 8, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Then turn around and drive back down the hill to the bottom so you can park. I've done it. Twice. It's annoying. Or get there early enough to park at the top of the hill And don't park in the car park - it's a nightmare to get out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what the public house is for Christopher. Sit in the car or have another drink. I wonder which we would choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 no aint got no sat nav dolls just heading for bath then let the wheels guide the way ,i live in frome Coming from Bath, you go A46 as you come into Nailsworth, down a steep hill with nasty bends, you come to a mini roundabout; turn left then straight up another hill,right to top ground on the left. Park on an estate opposite before 1.00 or its back down the hill and hope; allow 30/40 mins from M4 junction. From m5; off at Stroud junction head for Stroud then A46 TO Nailsworth mini round; about then turn right up hill, ground on left, allow at least 1/2 hour from M5.

Its not that i can't drive i'm not old enough Another way you can get there is to get the train to stroud. From Stroud station you need to walk through the Merrywalks shopping centre to the A46 Bath Road, where you will find Stroud bus station MAP HERE Then get the number 46 bus from here which runs right outside the FGR ground BUS TIMES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I keep trying to tell Portishead Red but he reckons we'll be alright leaving BS20 at 1pm. I reckon that's too late seeing as it took us about an hour to find it last year and was a bugger to park. What do you lot think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon that's too late seeing as it took us about an hour to find it last year and was a bugger to park. What do you lot think? Always left Chepstow about 1.5hrs before kick off and never had a problem M4 to Doddington then A46 ground is sign posted at bottom of Nailsworth hill - True its a bit tight for parking but always find somewhere on the grass verge or down the side roads by the housing estate - in fact probably even more room now as last year it looked like they were preparing to build in the fields past the ground try the FGR post code in google maps and click on satellite view - shows good the area around the ground (I tried to paste the link but didnt work?)
