Bashley Club Profile
Based in sleepy New Milton, Bashley were certainly a new one on us when we drew them in the 2001-2 FA Trophy Fourth Round. And they didn’t half make us work for it too; Boro’ labouring to a slender 1-0 win to secure a place in the next round. Any chance of us going up against each other are pretty much restricted to cup competition, however. The Bash are members of the Wessex League, which is a long way from home for us.

Bashley Travel Information – Distance: 119 miles
By Road
If you ever wondered just where Bashley is, we’re delighted to inform you it’s in the centre of the New Forest; around halfway between Southampton and Poole as the crow flies. To get there will be a combination of the M25, M3 and westbound M27. We’re not completely sure that elaboration is needed for that first part.
The M27 comes to an end on the western side of Southampton and it’s here that you’ll be coming off the carriageway before it becomes the A31 for Bournemouth. Take the first exit at the roundabout for the Southampton-bound A31, before the third exit at the next one for the A337. After 2.2 miles, you need to turn right for a road that Google hasn’t named.
But the next right turn is a named road: Pikes Hill. If you went the right way – and we pray that you have – you’ll come out in front of Christ Church. Turn left and then right so you’re on the A35. Once you pass seven miles, turn left onto the B3058 Holmesley Road for 2.3 miles; the road goes round by The Rising Sun and becomes Bashley Common Road.
The ground will be on the left.

Parking
There is a minor car park at the ground, so we can’t promise that you’ll find a space there. Otherwise, street parking seems like the best bet.
By Rail
Station: NEW MILTON
Services to: LONDON WATERLOO
At around a mile-and-a-bit, it’s possible to walk up from the nearest station. You end up leaving the station, heading east and turning left onto Station Road. This is the B3058 and all you need to do is follow it up to the ground.
