Directions to Sawbridgeworth BC

As you enter the A1184 London Road through Sawbridgeworth from either direction you turn into Bell Street by the White Lion pub (by the pedestrian set of traffic lights ). Bell Street is a one way street and after about 50 metres you take the first small turning on the right into the car park. The footpath to the club is located in the left hand corner of the first car park. If this car park is full follow the road round to the second part of the car park. Parking is free at weekends.
