What's The Ground Like?

The ground is a classic old looking one. On one side are two seated covered stands. One is quite old looking with windshields to each side and a number of supporting pillars across the front of it. It has a steeply angled roof which points sharply downwards. On one side is a more modern looking stand although it too has a number of supporting pillars. At one end is large steep terrace that is known as the Bristol End. If fans need to be segregated then it is this end which is allocated to the visiting supporters. There is a noticeable slope to the pitch that descends from this area down to the other end of the ground. This end has a small shallow terrace that has nets behind in an attempt to stop balls being kicked out of the ground. The remaining side is a rather old but quaint looking covered terrace that runs the full length of the pitch. The ground is completed by a set of four traditional floodlights in each corner of the stadium.

Where to Drink?

There is a social club at the ground which admits away fans. Otherwise if you exit the car park and turn right along the parade of shops then you will reach the Old Crown pub.

Where to Eat?

Next to the Old Crown pub there is a handy fish & chip shop.

How to Get There by Car & Where to Park

Although this may not be the most direct route it does have the advantage of avoiding Bath City Centre:

Leave the M4 at Junction 19 and go onto the M32. At the end of the M32 head towards Bath (A4). On nearing Bath take the A36 Lower Bristol Road. After one mile turn right under a Railway Bridge (signposted Bath City FC) and into Twerton High Street. Take the 2nd left for the ground entrance. There is a car park at the ground which holds 150 cars, otherwise street parking.

Nearest Train Station

Oldfield Park Station is located a mile away. It is served by trains from Bristol Temple Meads & Southampton.
