It’s fair for us to say that Desborough Town are a side who are more familiar with the United Counties League than most; Ar Tarn first joining the competition in 1934 and still competing in it to this very day. It’s where we came up against them during the 1981-2 season, after all.

Heading to Desborough? Take the A1(M)/A1 north as far north as the interchange with the A14. Join the westbound A14 towards the Midlands for around 26 miles. Leave at Junction 3, however, for the A6 towards Leicester and Market Harborough. After leaving the A14, at the roundabouts at the top of the slip road, take the fourth and second exits respectively.
In around 2.5 miles, you get to yet another roundabout. Take the third exit for Braybrooke Road. The football ground is down this road on the left in about three quarters of a mile.

The car park at Desborough Town should be more than adequate. But you’ll find street parking nearby if needs be.
A railway line runs more or less behind the stadium, but finding a station is a whole different matter. It looks as if Kettering is the nearest, and this is quite some distance.
