Directions: |
Which
ever direction you come from, you need to get onto the
A14 Kettering bypass. There's a small car-park dedicated
to away fans; if full, you can use the supermarket just
down the hill.
From the South:
Leave the M1 at Junction 15, taking the A45
past Northampton, then the A43 towards Kettering. Turn
left onto the A14 Kettering bypass, and north of the
town turn right onto the A6003. Follow this road towards
the town centre and you should pass the ground on the
left after about half a mile.
From the North:
From the M1/M6 Junction 19, get onto the A14 towards
Kettering, then follow the same directions as above
from the A14 Kettering bypass.
