Swindon Town FC

Map

This is the map to help you away fans get to the ground. I have also managed to get directions aswell.
From the M4
Leave at junction 15, and at the roundabout, take the turning to Swindon. At the next roundabout, turn left. Continue down the dual-carriageway, past the Sun Inn on the left, then take the third turning at the roundabout (Queens Drive). Go right to the end of the dual-carriageway (mind the speed camera!), then go left at the roundabout. Burger King should be ahead on the left - at the Magic Roundabout, the ground will be on the right.

From the M40
Leave at junction 9, then take the A43, A34 and A420 into Swindon. Go past Sainsbury's, get in the right-hand lane, and take the third turning off the roundabout. The White Hart pub will be on the left. Mind the speed camera! Go over a mini-roundabout (by the Lady Margaret pub), then take the second turning off at the large roundabout. Go right to the end of the dual-carriageway, then go right at the roundabout. Burger King should be ahead on the left - at the Magic Roundabout, the ground will be on the right.

From Swindon train station
Come out of the station and turn left down Station Road, until you come to the White House Hotel, then turn right. Walk down this road until you come to a crossroads with traffic lights - turn left into Manchester Road. Walk to the end of Manchester Road - then turn right onto County Road, and after a short while you should be able to see the County Ground on the left.
