Where are we?

the swan

the crown

The club is sited on the village common, sitting perilously between the second and ninth hole of the local golf course.

Directly opposite are the two local pubs, The Swan and The Crown.

We are a comfortable distance from both Chesham and Hemel Hempstead.

Directions

From Amersham:
Take the A413 to Chesham. Follow B4505 (Bovingdon) to the top of Eskdale Avenue. Take the second exit at the mini-roundabout, along Botley Road. Follow the road for around two miles. The pitch is on Ley Hill Common opposite the two pubs, HP51UY.

From Hemel Hempstead:
Take the B4505 (Chesham) through Bovingdon. Just past the Mount Prison turn left into Ley Hill Road. Down and up. When you come into Ley Hill, the pitch can just be seen through the woods on your left. Turn sharply left; the pitch is on your left opposite the two pubs.

Our second ground at Bellingdon:

Driving through Chesham, you will pass Sainsbury on your right and the Elgiva Theatre on your left. Continuing along Berkhampstead Road, turn left opposite the Jolly Sportsman PH into Sunnyside Road and at the end, right onto Bellingdon Road. Continue for approximately three miles into Bellingdon village and turn left at the sign for the Recycling Centre. The ground is opposite the Village Hall, HP5 2XU.
