STADIUM PLAN

 Brunton Park Ground Plan

1 - Story Homes Stand

2 - Warwick Road End

3 - Main Stand and Paddock

4 Waterworks End


Home Fans

Home fans can choose between a modern stand or traditional terracing - all areas provide an unrestricted view of the action.

 Story Homes Stand

The Story Homes Stand (SHS) is on the East side of the ground.  It is a large, relatively new all-seated area with a concourse underneath that houses a shop, bars, a betting shop and food outlets. The North End of the stand (blocks 2 and 3) usually houses away fans and an area of seats is cordoned off to provide segregation. Blocks 5 of the SHS stand are adults only.

 Warwick Road End

The Warwick Road End is a traditional terraced stand with a distinctive arched roof. This area, behind the goal, often generates more noise than any other part of the ground. A place for vocal supporters to get behind their team.

  Main Stand and Paddock

The West side of the ground has a two tiered stand. The bottom tier is known as The Paddock and is a standing terrace.

The upper tier is divided into smaller all-seated areas. From the Warwick Road End of the ground the nearest stand is A Stand where children from local schools attending the game on our Community Ticket Scheme are situated. There is a small shop at the top of the stand and a toilet block at the entrance to the stairs.

The middle part of the upper tier is divided into B, C, and D stands. The Press are housed at the top of these stands and the directors boxes run along the front. B Stand is restricted to adults and Senior Citizens only and C Stand is restricted to adults only.

The area of the upper tier nearest the Petteril End is known as E stand, or more usually the Edinburgh Woollen Mill Stand. This stand is directly above Foxy's Restaurant and the viewing gallery.

How To Get Here

By Road - Brunton Park is within easy reach of the M6.

Leave the motorway at Junction 43 and take the first exit off the roundabout. The Blue roof of the Cumberland Building Society Stand can be seen on the right hand side, almost as soon as you leave the roundabout.

Keep going straight ahead along Warwick Road (A69).

After passing through the third set of traffic lights the club shop (Blues Store) and Hughie McIlmoyle statue marks the main entrance to the ground.

Car parking in this area is strictly limited to pass holders, visiting directors (by prior arrangement) and the away team bus.

Car Parking

Cars: Main Car Park (home and away supporters) - From the M6 turn right at the 3rd set of traffic lights and drive through the gates and behind the CBS stand to enter the car park.

Coaches other than the Official team coach: From Junction 43 take the first exit off the roundabout. At the third set of traffic lights turn right. Stewards will allow the bus through behind the East Stand for passengers to disembark at the away turnstiles, the bus will then be directed to the car park and allowed back after the game to pick up passengers from the away end. All coaches, other than the official team coach, are charged £15.

By Rail - Carlisle Citadel Station is served by the West Coast Main line, with the station situated in the middle of Carlisle. From the station, walk straight ahead cross Botchergate and walk along the Crescent until you see the entrance to Warwick Road on the right, next to Bar Suede. Brunton Park is about a fifteen minute walk from the entrance to Warwick Road.


Disabled Facilities

Wheel chair users are allocated places at the front of the main stand. Tickets for wheelchair users are priced £2 with the maximum of one carer free. Tickets can be bought in advance from main reception or, on match days, from the East Stand ticket office.

Supporters with visual difficulties may wish to bring a portable radio as full match commentary is available from Radio Cumbria on 95.6 FM and 75.6 AM frequencies.

There is disabled car parking in the main car park.

Visitors requiring further information should ring main reception on (01228) 526 237.

Emergency Procedures

In the event of an emergency occurring at the stadium, the Public Address System will be used to broadcast information and directions to spectators. Such broadcasts will be preceded by a three-tone chime. When the chimes are heard, please be silent, pay attention to what is said and obey any instructions. An example of this alert will be carried out just before kick-off and at half-time, and will be clearly stated that the announcement is for instructive purpose only.
