ok ill paste the directions

By Car
From the M6


Leave the M6 at Junction 3.

Go onto the A444 to Nuneaton.

Go straight at first mini roundabout then when you reach the Griff Roundabout, proceed onto the A444 to Nuneaton.

Go straight at the next mini roundabout, then you will reach another roundabout, with a large Stone in the middle and a Yellow bridge. Go straight at this roundabout.

At the Next roundabout next to Cotton Arches take the 2nd exit onto Avenue Road.

Follow this road until you get to the next roundabout where you should go straight on, onto Eastboro Way.

Go over the bridge and you will come to a mini island (next to The Crows Nest Pub) go straight on.

Take a left at the next roundabout onto Townsend Drive, then take the next right onto Liberty Way. Gates are straight ahead.

From the M1

Exit the M1 at Junction 21.

Then at the roundabout go onto the M69.

Exit the M69 at the Junction 1 for the A5, Nuneaton and Hinckley.

Leave the roundabout and turn right, join the A5 Watling Street to Nuneaton.

Then stay on the road until you see signs for A47 Nuneaton and take a left next to the Longshoot Pub (use filter road).

You will reach a roundabout at the end of the A47. Take a left onto Eastboro Way. (Nuneaton RFC signposted and a Somerfield and The Acorn Pub are on the right of Eastboro Way).

You will then see Nuneaton RFC on your right. At the mini roundabout take a right onto Townsend Drive and the next Right onto Liberty Way. Gates are straight ahead.

If you are coming from anywhere else use ##URL REMOVED## The address of the club is Nuneaton RFC, Liberty Way, Attleborough Industrial Estate, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, CV116RR.

Using Public Transport
Trains
If you are arriving by Train, you need to go to Nuneaton train station. Nuneaton train station is on the West Coast line and has regular trains to and from Coventry, Birmingham New Street, Leicester, Cambridge, Euston and Liverpool Lime Street. The train station is about a 5 minute taxi journey from the rugby club and should cost between £5 and £8 depending on the time of the day. To check train times go to ##URL REMOVED##

Walking
Walking to the ground from the train station would probably take between 25 and 45 minutes depending on your fitness levels! It is about a 2 mile journey. There are two ways to walk from the train station and both are similiar lengths.

Here are directions for the first route which has a Harvester restaurant on the way and the Acorn pub.

Turn left out of the train station and walk inbetween the shops (Blockbuster and Netto on the left and Dunelm on your right).

Go over Leicester Road bridge (this goes over the train tracks) and cross the road so you are walking in the opposite direction to the one way traffic along Leicester Road , past Etone School and Sports Centre.

Continue straight along Hinckley Road , you will pass Allan Ford Garage, North Warwickshire and Hinckley College and a Total Petrol Station all on your left hand side.

When you reach a roundabout at the top of Hinckley Road (next to a Travelodge and Harvester), take a right down Eastboro Way . This will take you past a small shopping centre and the Acorn pub on your right. Keep heading down Eastboro Way past Hemdale Industrial Estate and you will see the Rugby Club.

Take a right at the roundabout on to Townsend Drive and then the next right on to Liberty Way .

To view a map of this route click here.

Here are directions for the 2nd route which is slightly shorter and has 7 pubs along the way (known as the Attleborough run), but its probably best to head straight for the Nuns for friendly banter, a good pint and a bit of food!

Leave the train station and go straight ahead. Turn left after about 200 yards by the Crown Inn.

Go straight ahead and cross the traffic lights next to the Liquid and Envy nightclub. Continue along Vicarage Road past the Justice Centre on your left until you reach a roundabout.

Turn left on to Church Street past St. Nicholas church; continue along this road passing several takeaways and pubs including the Rugger Tavern and the Attleborough Arms.

When you reach the roundabout turn left onto Garrett Street go over the bridge and continue on to Eastboro Way , once at the mini roundabout by the Crows Nest pub continue heading straight on until you reach another roundabout.

Take a left at the roundabout on to Townsend Drive and then the next right on to Liberty Way .
