Why should an away supporter make the trip? We aren’t the easiest club to get to via public transport but we are situated in a very interesting part of the world and will offer you a friendly welcome. We have a well-stocked bar and will hopefully put on a good show, on and off the pitch! Well behaved dogs on leads permitted in the ground, good dog walking area next to the ground. Children’s play area next to the main car park.

The local area

Nearest railway station: The closest station is Coleshill Parkway, but Birmingham International is also near by. If you are energetic Coleshill Parkway is probably about a 2-5 mile walk to the ground taking in the High Street and numerous pubs and shops. Birmingham International is a taxi ride of 4-5 mile away – book a train ticket here

Nearest pub: Coleshill Town’s ground is set about a quarter mile down a country lane, the nearest pub is the George and Dragon, situated at the top of the lane (Packington Lane). It is a decent pub but if you are able we prefer to recommend the Green Man Pub that is in the High Street – the pub sponsors the club but I appreciate it is a longer walk to the ground

Nearest hotel: Plenty in Coleshill – book a hotel here

Local taxi: TC Cars 01675 419000
