At roundabout after 0.9 miles, go straight on (s/p Sheffield North A61). (*)From here, signs to `Sheffield North' and `City Centre A61' lead directly to the ground, a distance of 5.6 miles. The route passes the Norfolk Arms after 3.4 miles, the Red Lion after 3.6 miles and the White Horse after 5.1 miles. The road leads to a roundabout (the Leppings Lane Roundabout) at the bottom of hill, by an Esso station. It forms the junction of the A61, Penistone Road and Leppings Lane.

There's a large car park at the Owlerton greyhound stadium, a 8-10 minute walk from the ground. To get there: from the Leppings Lane Roundabout by the ground, go straight on (s/p City Centre A61, Owlerton, Hillsborough), and the stadium is on the LHS after 0.6 miles (s/p Barnsley A61, Manchester A628). Alternatively, loop all the way round the Leppings Lane Roundabout and head back up the A61. Turn left almost immediately (s/p Clay Wheels) into Beeley Wood Road, which leads into Clay Wheels Lane. Cars park along here, and there's a secure car park at the site of an old brewery, on the RHS after 0.4 miles.
