## Parking at HMS Alliance in Clayhall

The Royal Navy Submarine Museum provides free car parking on site for visitors to HMS Alliance in Clayhall, at Haslar Bridge, Gosport, PO12 2AQ (royalnavymuseums.org.uk). The museum’s car park closes at 4.45pm, and cars left after that time risk being locked in (royalnavymuseums.org.uk).

This is the most direct choice for drivers carrying luggage or planning to spend the visit exploring the submarine museum rather than walking from central Gosport.

## Parksy Spaces Near the Submarine Museum
