Directions
& Essentials
|
| The
Hawthorns is easy to get to. Its M5 J1, with the A41 to
Birmingham taking you to the ground, alternatively head for
the town center, from where the ground is clearly sign posted.
Fans can catch the 74,77,78,79 or 450 buses to the
ground. There is a Hawthorns railway station, while you
can also get the Metro service in to the ground. Check with
operators for timetables and stops! You can walk to the
Hawthorns from the Town Center in anything between 10 minutes
and half an hour, depending on your pace. |

The
Experience by Paul
Atwhal
|
| The
Hawthorns has really changed over the years. Albion fans are
amongst the best in the country and the Hawthorns is a smart
stadium with excellent facilities. Parking is the only
problem i have experianced when visiting. I suggest parking
in the town and walking to the ground. |
