How to find us

Directions to Stadt Du Wandsworth Common

By road

The majority of our opposition will be travelling in from far-West London. From the West, teams will need to find the A219 Fulham Palace Road and then turn left into the A308 New Kings Road. This will lead to the A217 Wandsworth Bridge Road. Continue along, crossing the Thames until turning left into the A3 Wandsworth Common North Side road (leading into Battersea Rise, again the A3). Second right is Bolingbroke Grove and the pitches are situated on the right hand side. Parking along this road and the subsequent side lanes is permitted but we have been made aware that the small car-park is strangely unavailable for football team use! FCTR will be investigating other sources to confirm.
