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.

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 (some free 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 COINS, CARD, & ACCESS TO A PARKING APP, AS SITES VARY​.

​

Most car parks have space for cycles, motorcycles, and accessible parking

is available

Street parking tends to be restricted to short stay. Broad Street is ideal for pick-up from the town shops but should be avoided during Fair week (Mother's Day for 7 days), Remembrance Sunday & Christmas Fair (usually last Saturday in November).

​

You may drive through the High Street pedestrian precinct before 10am and after 4pm any day for pick-up only
