By Car
Car parking at Sarum College is very limited and is available on a first come first serve basis. We have one space reserved for disabled parking. Alternatively there is a small car park within the cathedral close (£6), along with others in the city centre.
If you do come by car The High Street entrance is the only way to drive into The Close. Beware – satellite navigation systems sometimes suggest St. Ann’s gate, which offers pedestrian-only access. Some systems are more effective when “North Walk” is entered as the street name rather than “The Close”.
