From the East (Buxton): Come into Macclesfield on the A537 (Careful though, it's reportedly the most dangerous road in the country). At the bottom of the hill with the station opposite turn left onto the dual carriageway. Then as above.

Ground Guide:
The Moss Rose is a small, compact little ground that whilst having undergone significant recent developments, is reflective of the club's days as a non-league club prior to 1997. Despite thse changes, the ground has maintained it's intimate feel and is full of character with the Main Stand on the London Road side of the ground most notable.

Seating accommodation is available on three sides of the ground with the away fans located in the Alfred McAlpine Stand (seating) and standing on the Silkmen Terrace.
