Parking
Car parks are marked on the map below by a red cross, the red line is a walking route from the town centre car parks to the leisure centre, they really are very close. Please do not be tempted to park on the grass around the leisure centre, our local parking officials are very active.
Entry
Saturday and Sunday will be opened to swimmers at 07:50 and spectators at 08:00. Please remember that British Summer Time ends at 02:00 on Sunday so you get an extra hour in bed.
