Junction 32, head towards Castleford Town Centre, park on Carlton Lanes Car Park and follow the crowd!

Hope you enjoy it (but not TOO much!)

Or The Castlefields car park? There are usually quite a lot of people parking there. But it is harder to find, so i'd stick with Carlton Lanes.

at the time you will need to park it is pay and display but it is the cheapest and is covered by CCTV
if you parked at the club its £4 and on street parking is very hard to find and do NOT park up Wheldon Road past the ground where the pit used to be, it has been know in the past as it is a quiet area to be a target for thieves

I agree with Hughie's Sister, 'cos she's marvellous!

Once again thanks to all for the replies.
I parked on car park in front of a pub called the 'Prince of Wales Feathers', which I am sure was the Carlton Lanes park. Very easy to park there and only 80p and I was in the ground very quickly.

I have not been to Cas for a very long time and I really enjoyed the experience (don't mean the result). I was very close to the action and I could hear the play calls from each team. It is sad that stadium like the Jungle will go in the name of progress. I know the new stadiums have great facilities but I felt that the Jungle had life built into it. At half time i was thinking of the years of history that was in the buildings.

I do think it is right that the RFL are demanding clubs have more up to date stadium but sadly a great stadium like the Jungle will be a victim to this.
