Charlton Station is right by the ground. Just follow the crowd down Floyd Road until you reach The Valley. There are frequent services from Charing Cross, Waterloo East and London Bridge. Click here for further information. 

The underground station at North Greenwich is a short bus ride from The Valley.

PARKING: Being London you'd be right to think that it is extremely limited. Restrictions are in place and you will be lucky to get a space near the ground. The nearby industrial estates do have some parking areas though.

AWAY END: 3000 seats in the Jimmy Seed South Stand.

RESTAURANTS: Most are located on Charlton Church Lane and Woolwich Road. You'll find the Golden Fish Bar a decent choice to eat and there's a nearby McDonald's on Bugsby's Way.

PUBS: Look no further than Antigallican near Charlton Station which has a great pre-match atmosphere. The Rose of Denmark on Woolwich Road also happens to be a great venue which welcomes away fans. Please note that after the game this becomes a venue open only to home supporters.
