Directions from the station to the ground
Boston station is around 10 mins walk from the ground. 
"Head down Station Street towards the large church tower. At the end is a Police Station, which you need to go down the right hand side of and then head over the river footbridge. Once across turn right up the alleyway, into Church Lane.  Keep going straight on, past the Britannia Inn and then cross the street to go down South Street. Take a left turn into Spain Lane and at its end you will come to a dual carriageway. The ground is clearly visible on the opposite side of it." (Directions from footballgroundguide.co.uk)
