Not really. You're best bet is the carpark opposite Blackhorse road station on the victoria line then hop three stops to Finsbury park. £1.00 parking all day.

I know of two places close to the ground (walking distance) - but neither are as cheap as a £1!

The first is a car-wash place with first-come-first-served parking. At the start of the season I raced back to London after a stag weekend for a Sunday match. I arrived late (think 20 mins into the game) but the car-wash still had parking available. I think it was £10. It's on Seven Sisters Rd, heading towards Finsbury Park, its just after the Hornsey Rd/Seven Sisters Rd junction on the left-hand side.

The other place I've used a couple of times for mid-week games. It's on-street parking-bays behind Finsbury Park station: Clifton Terrace, Lennox Rd or Morris Place. It doesn't seem to get too busy mid-week, although I've never used it at the weekend. The other bonus is that the 12pins is just round the corner!

Hope that helps.

Roll on Saturday!

Spuddy is indeed correct bout the Blackhorse road car park but you have to get there before 1pm coz it is usually closed by then.

When collecting your car you can pop in the Yassar kebab house for a lovely kebab which stays open and serves booze till 5am.

Just a thought.....

Try near Caledonian Road tube, but make sure you are outside the restricted zone otherwise you will get towed. You will have a 20 mins walk from there.

If £1 is too much and you fancy a bit of exercise, park in one of the side streets off of Chingford Road which is just off the North Circular and have a 15 minute walk to Walthamstow Central.
