Historic site parking with pay-on-arrival
Old Sarum Car Park on Castle Road (SP1 3SD) serves the medieval Old Sarum site and nearby historic attractions. The gravel lot accommodates 40 vehicles, including two disabled bays near the ticket office. Open daily from 9 am to 5 pm (extended to 7 pm in summer), parking is £4 per vehicle via cash-or-card machine; season passes available at the site shop. There is no lighting to preserve the archaeological landscape, so visits must occur during daylight. A paved trail leads 200 metres uphill to the Old Sarum earthworks and visitor centre. No EV charging or CCTV is provided; occasional site wardens patrol and provide guidance.
