By car: All Routes: Exit M62 at junction 20 (s/p Rochdale, Oldham A627(M)). After 0.5 miles, where road divides, keep right (s/p Manchester East A663, Oldham, Ashton A627). After 1.4 miles exit A627(M) (s/p Oldham, Ashton A627). At roundabout take 2nd exit (s/p Oldham, Ashton A627) into Chadderton Way. The floodlights are visible from here. After 0.7 miles, take 1st turning on left (s/p Boundary Park) into Boundary Park Road. Follow road round into Furtherwood Road. Ground is on left.
By rail: From Railway Station (Oldham Werneth): It's just over a mile walk. Walk up pathway to main road (Featherstall Road South). Turn right, and go straight on for 0.3 miles, passing several curry houses. Cross road before roundabout and take pedestrian subway. Exit subway towards Westwood Conservative Club, turn left in front of the Club and immediately right along pathway towards Spinners Arms. Turn left in front of pub, walking along Maygate. Straight over crossroads, through traffic no-entry signs. Follow road round to right, passing Health Authority building on left - road becomes more of a rutted track (Westhulme Avenue). Straight on for about 0.2 miles to ground. Cross road to away turnstiles.
By bus: The following buses all run down the Oldham Road: the 409 from Oldham town centre to Rochdale, the 408 from Moston and the 400 from Stockport to Bolton.
Trouble Factor: Fairly safe these days though the hooligan element does come out to play on occasion. Police tend to be friendly and they recommend avoiding the town centre, especially if you wear colours.

Car Parking: There are large car parks at the ground, but cars are packed in tightly so no-one gets away before the final whistle! There's also street parking along part of Sheepfoot Lane and in the roads around The Rifle Range Inn.
Pubs: A wide selection of pubs throughout Oldham. Those closest to the ground tend to be home fans only, but it's only a two minute walk before you find a pub that welcomes away fans.
Food: Plenty of Curry houses, chip shops and fast food establisments all within a couple of minutes of the ground.
