The ground is well signposted in and around Swindon town centre. Just follow signs for The County Ground. From M4 Junc.15: Follow A345 (Queens Drive) to Drakes roundabout. Turn left towards the Magic Roundabout, The County Ground is on the corner of this roundabout.
From the North A419 from Cricklade/Cirencester/M5: Continue on the A419 until reaching the top of the new 3 lane stretch of dual-carriageway, which runs uphill. (I would advise to stay in the inside lane on this climb as the exit approaches quickly).
Take the exit at the top of the hill (Lady Lane Junction). At the lights go right, then almost immediately at the next set of lights go left. Follow this road through the next set of traffic lights (passing the Motorola building to the right), then branch left onto the A4311.
From here follow this road, following signs for Town Centre. At Transfer Bridges roundabouts turn left at the first and then straight over the second. The County Ground is on the left after the mini-roundabout.
The County Ground is one of the few remaining football stadiums you can notice from a fair distance, due to the striking floodlights.
Some street parking is available. Otherwise park at the cricket club (take County Road off the Magic Roundabout, go past the County Hotel on your right, you will see a small sign further down on your right for football parking, just before the mini roundabout).
There is some parking available at the ground itself for a cost of £10.
