ParkingParking is always a major concern for the continued use of this venue. The police have voiced concerns in the past about on street parking. Upper Brook St/Trefonen Road is totally unsuitable for on street parking. Please will all clubs attending the meeting ensure that all those coming to the meeting use the nominated parking facility at Marches School accessed from Morda Road. There is a footpath from there through to the course.

Directions for Cars
From the A5 go straight across at the first roundabout as you approach Oswestry. Pass the Cattle Market on your left followed by a pub, a road on the left, & a hump back bridge. Take the Left turn immediately after crossing this bridge into Victoria Road which becomes Lower Brook Street. This road will take you to a set of traffic lights Turn left at these lights, into Morda Road and Marches School is about ½ a mile on your right.

Directions for Coaches
The left turn at the traffic lights in Oswestry is a sharp turn into a narrow road & not recommended for coaches. Therefore coaches should take the following route. At the roundabout approaching Oswestry, take the left turn A483 towards Welshpool. Take 2nd right (about 1.5 miles). Follow this road back into Oswestry. The Marches school will be on your left as you enter the 20mph area. This is a fairly sharp turn best negotiated from the oncoming traffic side of the road.
