 HOW TO FIND US
 
From the North – leave the M6 at junction 16 and take the A500 south towards Stoke-on-Trent.  In approx. 6 miles take exit sign posted Tunstall (A527).  At the roundabout take the left turning (second exit sign posted Tunstall A527, Longport Road).  After 0.5 miles, at the small roundabout, turn right on to the B501 (second exit, Newcastle Street).  Carry on up to the next roundabout and go straight across to the crossroads.  Go straight across at the traffic lights into Moorland Road.  Take the second left onto Hamil Road and Vale Park is on the left.
 
From the South – leave the M6 at junction 15 and take the A500 northbound towards Stoke-on-Trent.  After approx. 6 miles take the A527 signposted Tunstall.  At the roundabout turn right (fourth exit sign posted A527 Tunstall; Longport Road).  After 0.5 miles, at the mini roundabout, turn right on to the B501 (second exit, Newcastle St).  Carry on up to the next roundabout and go straight across to the crossroads towards the traffic lights (Victorian Town Hall facing you on the left).  Go straight across at the traffic lights into Moorland Road.  Take the second left onto Hamil Road and Vale Park is on the left.
 
From the West – follow the A500 east and take the exit sign posted Tunstall A527.  At the roundabout turn right (fourth exit sign posted A527 Tunstall, Longport Road).  After 0.5 miles, at the small roundabout, turn right on to the B501 (second exit, Newcastle St).  Carry on up to the next roundabout and go straight across to the crossroads.  Go straight across at the traffic lights into Moorland Road.  Take the second left onto Hamil Road and Vale Park is on the left.
 
From the East – take either the A50 or the A52 depending on where you are coming from in to the City, following signs for Burslem.  The two routes below are not the most direct of routes, but probably the easiest to follow and there is very little difference in mileage. 
 
For the A50 – enter the city via the Uttoxeter bypass (M1/M6 link road) and through Meir and the new Meir tunnel.  Continue on this road until you pass Stoke City’s Britannia Stadium (on the left).  Using the middle or right-hand lane, turn right at the roundabout on to the A500.  Continue on the A500 and take the fourth exit sign posted A527.  At the roundabout turn right (fourth exit sign posted A527 Tunstall, Longport Road).  After 0.5 miles, at the small roundabout, turn right on to the B501 (second exit, Newcastle St).  Carry on up to the next roundabout and go straight across to the crossroads.  Go straight across at the traffic lights into Moorland Road.  Take the second left onto Hamil Road and Vale Park is on the left.
 
 For the A52 – take the A52 to the Cellarhead traffic lights (the junction with the A520).  Carry straight on heading towards Stoke-on-Trent, through Ash Bank and Werrington.  At the large cross roads (Limekiln Bank traffic lights) go straight across – using the right hand lane for the two lanes going straight on – up the steep incline.  Stay in the right hand lane and take the right hand turn where indicated by the road markings (Keelings Road).  Stay on this road until you come to a set of traffic lights.  Get in the right hand lane, and turn right – getting into the left hand lane as you turn.  Carry on for about 1.5 miles until you reach a series of mini-roundabouts - approach this in the right hand lane.  At each of these roundabouts go straight ahead – onto High Lane, then take the fourth left, which is Hamil Road.  Vale Park is on the right towards the bottom of Hamil Road.
