PARKING
At Highbury Fields: You can park in resident bays after 6:30pm for free. There is also some pay and display parking at the bottom of the park, if you arrive and want to park up earlier than 6:30pm. On Arsenal match days, you cannot park anywhere! Please check http://www.arsenal.com/ to keep up with match fixtures.
At the school: You should not park in the school car park without permission from the security staff at reception. You risk having your car clamped or locked in, so please do check with security at the school. The car park on Highbury Grove, to the left of the Visitors’ entrance which you go in, does not belong to the school, so please don’t park there!
There are residential streets nearby where parking is free after 6:30pm (except on Arsenal match days, when you cannot park anywhere! Please check http://www.arsenal.com/ to keep up with match fixtures.)
Cycles: There are cycle racks near the park and the school, but please take care to lock up your bike carefully as unfortunately thieves do operate in the area.
