Sheffield Station is quite a distance from the ground. From the station there are a few options to consider. A cab is an expensive way to get to the ground but cheaper ways include taking a bus from Flat Street Bus Terminus (the 53, 77 or 80) or jump on the Tram.

You should add at least 25 minutes for bus travel. For the Tram, take the Blue line into the city centre and change to the Yellow line for Leppings Lane. The Tram will take approximately half an hour and a return ticket will cost £2.70. In case you want to make a day of it, a 'Dayride' ticket costs exactly the same price.

PARKING: Parking at the ground is £5 otherwise it's £3 at one of the car parks off the A61. Any early arrivals can make use of the limited street parking.

AWAY END: 3,700 seats in the West (Leppings Lane End) Stand.

RESTAURANTS: Penistone Road North is home to McDonalds, KFC and Pizza Hut and some good old fashioned pubs serving good old fashioned pub lunches. Should you fancy something Oriental, Hoong Too is very popular with the locals and offers large portions for very reasonable prices.

PUBS: The Horse and Jockey on Wadsley Lane is the main away choice although you can enjoy a pint in the Norfolk Arms, Red Lion or The Pheasant all off of the A61 and near the ground.

It is strongly advised that should away fans should not visit The Park, The Gate, The Traveller, The Ball, The Shaky and Legends. These are strictly for home fans only.
