Who are you?

A village team on the outskirts of Manchester, Droylsden have risen from a pub team to the pinnacle of the non-league pyramid.

Where in the world?

Droylsden is about 4.5 miles East of the centre of Manchester and just outside Ashton-Under-Lyne.

Getting there?

By Road: Exit motorway at Junction 23, (signed A635-Manchester from Oldham direction and A6140-Ashton under Lyne from Stockport direction). Join A635 towards Manchester. (1.25 miles from ground) After retail park on left (A McDonald's sign is prominent), take centre lane. Turn right at traffic lights onto A662 (signed Droylsden); in 100 yards at traffic lights the main road bends left. In half a mile at the next traffic lights turn right onto Market Street Go straight on at traffic lights Entrance to ground is 225 yards on left next to a hand car wash.

Parking: There is no official parking at the ground but there is a pay and display car park nearby and plenty of parking in the surrounding streets.

By Rail: The nearest station is Ashton-Under-Lyne which is approximately 2.5 miles away. The main stations of Manchester Piccadilly and Victoria are approximately 4.5 miles away.

The Stadium? Droylsden has undergone some recent developments and is vastly improved from Burton's last visit in the Unibond League. A new main stand and a covered terrace area have been added, but the ground still retains that old classic non-league feel.

Most games are still un-segregated and so fans are able to roam freely around the ground to find the best vantage point. Visiting fans are also allowed access to the Phoenix Social Club at the ground.
