PARKING:
There is a small car park at Preston Park which fills up quickly on matchdays with players and staff. Around the ground is busy residential street and like the car park, the whole area fills up quick. Attempts should be made to park away from the area to ease congestion; if you do park locally then please do so with consideration and respect for our residential neighbours.

Getting to Preston Park

By Train

Harefield is not blessed with a train station though there were plans in the 1940s to build one in South Harefield. The nearest station to the ground is Northwood and Uxbridge where you can board a bus to near the ground.

Bus
From either Northwood or Uxbridge Station, board a 331 to Harefield. Ask the driver to let you know when you get the village green in Breakspear Road North, Harefield. Once off the bus walk down Breakspear Road North away from the village for approx. 200m. The ground is on the right, you cannot miss it!

By Car
Leave the M25 at the M40 junction (16) heading into London, then exit at the Swakelys roundabout turn left signposted Ickenham, take a left at the first roundabout into Harvil road, continue down this round over one roundabout into Harefield village, at the roundabout turn right into Breakspear Road North and the ground is about 300 yards on the right-hand side.
