When to Visit
Town centre car parks tend to be busiest on Saturdays as shoppers head to the high street. If you can, weekday mornings before 10am or Sundays offer a much calmer experience. Evenings can also work well if you’re visiting restaurants or catching a show. The car park has enough capacity for most normal demand, though Saturdays can get tight.
