Go straight across the mini roundabout, over a railway bridge and you will see the Stadium on your right hand side.

By Rail

As you come out of the Station entrance, turn right and then follow the station approach road around to the left. At the bottom of this road you will reach a T-Junction where you turn left. You will then reach another T-Junction with the A370 dual carriageway, where you turn right. Continue along the A370 passing by two roundabouts and an Asda store on your left. At the third roundabout that you reach (with a McDonalds outlet on one side), take the third exit onto Winterstoke Road (signposted Weston Industrial Estate). The Stadium is further down this road on the right.
