| Getting
there |
By
Car: (approx 40 miles from HW)
A few routes to choose from but
for those opting for the motorway go via the M40 east, M25 north
to join the M1 northbound. Proceed on M1 until junction 10 and follow the A1081
signposted Luton (S). After ½ mile turn left at junction 10A and into London
Road. After another mile turn left at roundabout onto flyover. Just before the
next roundabout, turn left into Dallow Road and then look for a left turn into
Clifton Road. Ground is just over the bridge.
Parking is street parking but it's better to park nearer the town to reduce the
risk of car crime. |

Train:
Nearest station Luton. Trains run from London Kings Cross
Thameslink. Kenilworth Road is around a 15 minute
walk from the Station. Turn right out of station and follow road towards
Sainsburys. Turn left near the dual carriageway and onto pathway. Follow pathway
until the roundabout complex at Dunstable Road. Turn right and then down onto
the road. Take the first left for the ground. |

KNOW YOUR HISTORY
The first League meeting between the two sides in September 1996 marked
the Official opening of the Woodlands
Stand at Adams Park.
The two sides did meet once before - a friendly in November 1971 arranged
as part of the deal that took Viv Busby
to Kenilworth Road the previous year. The game ended 1-1 before a gate of
1,499 at Loakes Park. Vic Halom scored for the Hatters with John
Delaney equalising for Wycombe. |
