The stretch of road opposite the Bowls Club in Plymouth Road allows free parking all day up to the Bus Station turning.  However, during the day, this area is used by workers in the town so it can be difficult to find a space.  During the evening, there is more chance of parking.

If you do need to use paid parking, the closest ones to the Bowls Club are:

1.  Bedford Car Park – on the same side of Plymouth Road as the Bowls Club, turning opposite the Bus Station. This car park is to the left at the top of Canal Road. Charges are £3.20 for four hours or £5.20 all day. (PayByPhone App 810469). There are also four electric vehicle charging bays as you enter the car park.

2. Wharf Car Park – as above, but keep bearing right when entering the Bedford Car Park. Charges are 70p for half an hour, £1.30 for an hour, £2.00 for two hours & £2.60 for three hours. (PayByPhone App 810475).

2. Riverside Car Park – situated in Pixon Lane (opposite M & C White Garage).  This car park is on the other side of the Meadows park from the Bowls Club. The daily charge is £3.50. (PayByPhone App 810473).

There is also a free parking area towards the top of Pixon Lane by the overhead bridge (except on Tuesdays when it is reserved for users of the Cattle Market).

If you are visiting for an afternoon game and need to access paid parking, then either the Bedford Car Park or the Riverside Car Park will be the most cost effective.  However, if you are visiting for an evening game and only need to pay for a short amount of parking (it’s free after 6.00pm), then it would be better to use the Wharf Car Park.

Payments at all car parks are either by cash at the pay machines or via the PayByPhone app.
