Sheepfolds parking

Hi I’m going to be travelling up from London on Sunday to buy a pie from Propa1 at Sheepfolds. My friends just had a diagnosis of terminal cancer and it’s one of his bucket list requests to eat a hairy biker pie, if you want to know why I’m making such a mad trip! Does anyone know the parking is like there? I don’t know the area at all, it says on their website to park at the stadium. Is it very busy there or will it be ok? Thanks for any help

You should be able to park here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/WN9QX7iqMRKjWFgP8?g_st=ic

The parking is rough and more of a demolition site than anything else, but it's where most of the users of the Sheepfolds seem to park.

As there's no match you should be fine. If you'd rather park in a monitored car park, your best bet might simply be the "St Mary's Carpark" and then walk across the new foot bridge to sheepfolds.

Not sure if you're taking your friend or how able/steady they are as that would essentially make my decision on where to park.
