BEST DAYS TO VISIT...

Weekdays Monday to Thursday tend to

be less busy in town. 

Friday is market day with stalls in Broad Street & High Street. Saturday also sees a market in

High Street and in Red Lion Square. These two days attract a lot of visitors to the town, 

so arrive early!

Sunday is busy around midday to mid-afternoon.

At busy times, like the run-up to Christmas,

& on Bank Holidays, an early start may

be recommended to make the

most of your visit!

...& where to park

Stamford is an ancient town with narrow streets making it a restricted area for parking right in the town centre. However, there are lots of car parks within a short walking distance of the shops and other amenities. These include motorcycle & accessible parking.

Larger, long stay car parks include:

 

*Cattle Market (Station Road). This car park is closed for the funfair 7 days from Mother's Day

*Bath Row (free & paid parking). This street is closed for the funfair for 7 days from Mother's Day

 

*Wharf Road car park

*North Street car park

*Scotgate car park

*St. Leonard's Street car park

​

PLEASE LOCATE THE CAR PARKS ON GOOGLE MAPS & TO FIND SAT NAV DETAILS. IT IS ADVISABLE TO BRING A BANK CARD, & ACCESS TO A PARKING APP (Ringo), AS SITES VARY​.

For pick-up of goods or passengers, you may drive through the High Street

pedestrian precinct before 10am

and after 4pm

any day.

Broad Street is another ideal collection point but should be avoided on Friday, market day. Do check that there are no other

events affecting this street

before visiting.
