Getting to the ground:
The postcode for the ground is NP19 0BG, This takes you directly to the away turnstile.
Leave the M4 at Junction 24 and take the B4237 towards Newport. After 2.5 miles, turn left at the set of traffic lights, signposted B4237. Under the bridge and then turn right at the next lights. Go past the ATS garage on the right and you’ll see the entrance to the away end on the left.
Which stand are we in?
Away fans will primarily be housed in the Bisley Stand at one side of the ground. There is uncovered seating at the south end of the ground, which opens for away fans if the demand is there.
Car parking information:
The ground does not have a car park so it’s street parking (please watch out for restrictions), or the town centre offers a number of pay and display car parks. The nearest one is the Kingsway Centre car park off the A4042, post code NP20 1EU.
Public transport information:
The nearest train station to the ground is Gwent (Newport) which is less than a ten-minute walk away.
Pubs for away fans:
There are two Wetherspoon pubs: Godfrey Morgan on Chepstow Road (ten-minute walk) and John Wallace Linton in the city centre. There is also the Windsor Castle on Upper Dock Street.
Food & drink in the ground:
Both hot and cold food and drink items are available via a food outlet just inside the turnstiles area selling burgers, hot dogs, pies etc. Alcohol will be served in the ground for away fans, too.
Programmes:
Printed programmes are available, priced at £3.
Flag policy:
There are generally no issues with supporters bringing flags but they must be displayed in a safe manner, not blocking walkways. Stewards will be on hand to assist where needed.
