You need to turn left off the A59 at the next sign for Clitheroe - watch for the "Information" and "telephone" symbols. Now head along Pendle Road, across the mini-roundabout and you’ll need to find a parking space once you see the postbox on your left. The ground itself is further along on your right behind the Bridge pub and the turnstile is up the narrow lane to the right of the pub.

If travelling from the Skipton end of the A59 - pass through Gisburn and continue along the A59 past the Stirk House Hotel on your right and then watch for the Auction Mart (A671) signs. You need to turn right off the A59 here and continue as far as the roundabout, then turn left past the hospital and on to the next roundabout near the petrol station. Turn left then follow the road round to the right, pass Tesco and then at the next (mini) roundabout turn left into Shawbridge Street. The ground itself is then on your left behind the Bridge pub and the turnstile is up the narrow lane to the right of the pub. You’ll need to find a parking space along Shawbridge Street.
