Bus to Leigh no 26 , walk to ground

Buses from Newton aren't great on a Sunday - you'll be better served going to Manchester and jumping on a 26 bus from Shudehill bus station.

There are no buses from Newton-le-Willows train station on a Sunday. The 34 bus that comes from St Helens, only operates to Newton-le-Willows and does not continue to Leigh on Sundays.
