Braintree Town: Club Profile
It feels strange to us that we’ve not played all that many competitive matches against the Iron. Rolling around into summer 2020, you had to go back nearly quarter of a century for our most recent meeting against Braintree Town; a 3-1 victory in the 1996-7 FA Cup Third Qualifying Round. We did meet in a summer 2020 friendly, however. It was played behind closed doors due the coronavirus thing. We best not have a repeat of our 1985-6 Eastern Floodlit League Semi-Final Second Leg then.

Parking
The club’s own car park is modest in size and costs a couple of quid. Otherwise, make use of street parking.

Leave the station, turning right onto Station Approach and follow it around to the left. Go straight on across South Street, before turning right into Trinovantian Way; following this around to the right onto Manor Street.
