Gillingham

Return fares are available at £15 day return from London Victoria and £26.80 from Southend.

The ground is about a ten minute walk away from Gillingham railway station, which are also served by trains from Charing Cross and London Bridge every 30 minutes but they are slower, though not so bad on an Bank Holiday as some smaller stations are closed.

Remember, it's in a Group Save area that can cut fares in half if four of you can travel together, and any various travelcards will make it even cheaper.
