BY CAR – travel to Worcester joining the M5 north at
J7. At J4A, join the M42. Leave the M42 at J11 and at the roundabout,
take the second exit onto the A444 (sign Burton). Stay on the A444 all the way
into Burton. At the roundabout near St
Peters Bridge, turn right onto Stapenhill Road then left at the lights onto The
Trent Bridge. Stay in the right lane
and through both sets of lights onto Horninglow Street. Go straight through the
first lights by the Magistrates Court and then right at the lights underneath
the Brewery Flyover into Hawkins Lane.
Follow the road through the Industrial Estate and over the Railway
Bridge into Princess Way. The ground is
300 yards on your right. Distance is
around 95 miles and you should allow 2 hours.
Postcode is DE13 0AR.
ALEHOUSES – Near the ground (over the bridge and off Wetmore
Road) is The Great Northern where you will find the excellent Burton Bridge
Bitter and at least one other handpump.
There was a good gathering of Bulls fans in here on our last visit. The Beech Inn is a ten-minute walk up the
Derby Road away from the town. In the
centre, the local ‘Spoons is The Lord Burton at 154 High Street. The Roebuck and the well-recommended
Devonshire Arms can be found by turning right out of the Station into Station
Street. The “Dev” keeps most of the
Burton Bridge range along with several guests and a varied menu. As you walk down Derby Road towards the
ground, there are suitable watering holes along the way. The visitors end includes a bar.
CHIP SHOP – Angelos at 13/14 Wellington Street looks a
decent bet before the walk down Derby Road although, I have a recollection that
there is one just over half way to the ground.
