Not such a strange face to Boro’ between 1988 and 1991; Witham Town were fellow members of the Isthmian League Division 2 North. But for a few seasons ‘back’ in the Essex League around the time we were promoted to the Football League, the Town are now long-standing veterans of the Isthmian set-up.

One of these days, a road finally link Stevenage with the A120 at Standon. But that day seems a long way off. That means you’ll have to do with the A602/A10 combination via Ware. Keep on the A120 until you come to Braintree.
At Freeport Village retail estate, take the fourth exit at the roundabout for the B1018 that takes you past a Premier Inn and garden centre. Keep going through four roundabouts; the total distance coming in at 5.3 miles.
Take the second exit at the roundabout for Chipping Hill and continue onto Powers Hall End, before taking the first exit onto Spa Road at the next roundabout. Turn right before the railway bridge for the venue.

The car park at the ground is a reasonable size. Otherwise, there are local side streets in the immediate area that might offer parking opportunities.

Turn left out of the station onto Albert Road and then left over the railway on Collingwood Road. Follow the road around onto Guithavon Valley, before taking a right onto Armond Road. Soon after, turn left onto Highfields Road and go under the railway bridge – before turning left.
