CHARLTON ATHLETIC - THE VALLEY

GROUND
Away fans are housed in the Jimmy Seed (South) Stand at one end of the ground, which is slightly raised above pitch level, making for a generally good view. Up to 3,000 away fans can be accommodated in this end.

PUBS
The Antigallican is near Charlton station is popular with Toon fans. However it can get very busy and this is not helped by the local police not allowing fans to drink outside during hot weather. The Rose of Denmark, on Woolwich Road is a cracking pub for away fans, but is home fans only AFTER the game.

There is also the Charlton Liberal club which can be found if you turn right out of Charlton station and walking 300yds up the hill on the left-hand side of the road, past the shops. But they do charge a small fee to get in. It is only 5 minutes from the away end.

GETTING THERE
Leave the M25 at junction 2 and follow the A2 towards London. When the A2 becomes the A102(M), take the A206 towards Woolwich and you will come to the ground on your right.

TRAIN
The ground is within walking distance of Charlton railway station, which is served by Charing Cross and London Bridge mainline stations. On Saturdays there are also services from Cannon Street station.

TUBE
Although Charlton station is very close to the Valley, many people will find it easier to take the far more reliable tube, using the Jubilee Line to get to North Greenwich station and then take the short ride on buses 161, 472 or 486.
