Sunday Parking in Norwich
Discussion
My other half has just started working in Norwich (Chapplefields). As Park and Ride doesn't appear to Run on a Sunday and from what we can gather all the car parks seem to charge there weekday rates on a Sunday can anyone suggest a good cheap place to park within walking distance?
Have looked at train times ad the first train is too late....
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks
Tom

Tom,
From what I can remember Bignold School playground is open for parking. I think its a £5 all day. If you get to St Stephens Roundabout from Newmarket Road and hang a left going towards Grapes Hill, there is a turning to your left immediately after the Pub. The school is there on your right hand side. Its all professionally done and manned.
I tend to park outside my unit off Heigham Street if I go in on a Sunday but it'd be a fair walk to Chapelfields. Offers there if you want it though..

Hi Tom,
If she is working in Chapelfield, won't they give their staff consessions to use their own car park?
If not, in terms of proximity, I'd have to go for the school.
I have to admit, I never knew the price of that car park near Sainsburys - I assume its the car park as you continue down the road from the entrance to the Queen's Road store?
I can't think of any other park to add, which wouldn't be too expensive. There's the Chantree open air car park, just off theatre street, which is right next to Chapelfield, but I have no idea of Sunday charges, I'm afraid (and can't find anything about it on the net)

If not I think she should be able to find her way to the school!
Thanks

Is it true that the NU car park next to the Sainbury's still charge a small fee of £1 to park on Sundays?

The one I go to is a tiny bit to the left from that link and is a triangle shape.
Brazen Gate is the name of the road.
Kings lane is a multistorey that charges more right?

100% certain is 'a' NU one, there are prob more than 1.
Fair enough, it's been a long time since I worked there. My link refers to the multistorey off Queens Road that used to be cheap to the public.Not that I ever go to Norwich any more since the anti-car greenist feckwits have vandalised the traffic systems, and then congested what's left with some massive logistical operation every saturday involving the moving hundreds of empty buses about.

Thats the one yes, one of the best kept secrets in Norwich Darren
Beats paying what I did yesterday in the Forum.....5 hours £6.50. Put in a tenner and then gave only £3.10 change!
So thanks for the tip
