Histon
Directions
Histon is situated just north of Cambridge. The ground is located on the
outskirts of the nearby village of
Impington. Leave the
M11 and take the A14 towards Newmarket. At Junction 32 take the B1049
towards Histon. You will pass a Holiday Inn on your right and then the road
goes over an old Railway Line. The entrance to the ground is just down on
the right, just before the pedestrian crossing. If you start driving past
houses then you have gone too far!
There is no car parking available at the ground for visiting supporters.
There is though plenty of street parking available.
By Train
The nearest station is in
Cambridge, around three miles away. The Citi 7 bus regularly runs from Cambridge
station to Histon/Impington (the ground is on the very edge of Impington).
Get off at the
BUPA Cambridge Lea Hospital or Railway Vue pub stops, both close to the ground.
Pubs
There is a small club house at the ground, but alas this is for home
supporters only. The nearest pub is called
the Railway Vue on Station Road. It is about a 5-10 minute walk away. From
the entrance of the ground turn right and head along Bridge Road. Turn left
at the next set of traffic lights and then left again into Station Road. The
pub is down on the left and there is plenty of street parking in this area
to be had. Owen Dilan adds; 'You can get to the Railway Vue even quicker if
you walk down the closed off road opposite the ground entrance, the Railway Vue
is then down on your right'.
If you have a bit more time on your hands then
you can go into the centre of Histon then there are number of pubs to be
found on the High Street, including the Barley Mow, Boot Inn, Rose & Crown
and the Red Lion. The latter being listed in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide.
