Travel and Directions to The Wessex Stadium

Directions to The Wessex Stadium by Car

From the West

Travelling along the A35 from Axminster/Honiton you will come to a roundabout at the southern end of the Bridport Bypass. At this roundabout take the 3rd exit signed B3157 Burton Bradstock.

The B3157 will take you along the Jurassic Coast Road for 16 miles through the picturesque villages of Burton Bradstock, Abbotsbury and Portesham and is a shorter route than following the A35. In the 'town' of Chickerell you will come to a set of traffic lights adjacent to Chickerell Army Camp.

Take the left turn signed for B3157 Weymouth and after half a mile on your left hand you will see the Wessex Stadium. Turn left at the next roundabout (signed Wessex Stadium) and left again into the stadium car park.
