The historic site is now partly occupied by a housing estate and the Friary Retail Park (disused-stations.org.uk), so drivers should treat the address as a former railway location rather than a working station entrance. The current rail car park information for Plymouth applies to Plymouth railway station, not the disused Friary site. The station address for this guide is 90 Whitefriars Lane, Greenbank, Plymouth, PL4 9RB. ## Whitefriars Lane and Greenbank Parking Rules Whitefriars Lane is the access street named in the address for the former site, at 90 Whitefriars Lane, Greenbank, Plymouth, PL4 9RB. The council’s Plymouth Station forecourt interchange project places short-stay pickup and drop-off facilities on the ground floor of a new multi-storey car park (plymouth.gov.uk), so drivers heading to the operational railway station should use the interchange rather than treating the former Friary site as a station forecourt. Devon and Cornwall Rail advises that station parking arrangements vary by location, with some station car parks free and others requiring payment (dcrp.org.uk). GWR says many stations offer reduced off-peak tariffs after 12:00 and at weekends (gwr.com). These rail-operator rules concern station car parks, while parking beside the former Friary site remains subject to the signs and restrictions displayed on the individual street or retail-park access road. Show map of Plymouth ## Parksy Spaces Near the Friary Site Six Parksy spaces are listed nearby, giving drivers alternatives to searching around the former station site. The closest is a secure parking lot in PL4 6AB, 290 yards away, priced at £2 an hour. A secure underground space at Charles Cross is 0.3 miles away at £1.70 an hour, while covered parking at Plymouth Harbour Approach is also 0.3 miles away at £5 an hour. For longer visits, Salisbury Road Surgery has a parking space 0.4 miles away at £3.80 an hour, and a space on Lydia Way is 0.4 miles away at £1.22 a day. A further parking space in Plymouth, Devon, is 0.5 miles away and costs £75 a week. The nearby lot suits short stays, the underground and covered spaces suit drivers wanting more structured parking, and the daily or weekly options are better matched to extended visits. ## Commuting From Plymouth Friary’s Location Commuters should plan around Plymouth railway station, because the Friary railway terminus closed in 1958 and its building was demolished in 1976 (wikipedia.org; disused-stations.org.uk). Plymouth railway station is 0.7 miles from the address, a 14-minute walk. The Parksy listings provide pre-arranged alternatives at different booking lengths: the PL4 6AB lot is charged hourly, the Lydia Way space is charged daily, and the Plymouth, Devon space is charged weekly. A commuter needing a regular weekday arrangement can compare the £75 weekly space with the £1.22 daily Lydia Way option, while a brief visit can use the £2-an-hour lot. GWR notes that reduced off-peak and weekend tariffs are available at many stations after 12:00 and at weekends (gwr.com). ## Walking and Interchange Options From the Former Friary Site Plymouth railway station is the nearby operational rail connection, 0.7 miles away and a 14-minute walk from 90 Whitefriars Lane. Drivers using the former Friary address should therefore allow for the walk to Plymouth railway station rather than expecting a train from the historic terminus. [APCOA](https://www.parksy.com/blog/apcoa-parking-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) operates the Plymouth Station car park and lists a daily rate of £11.20 (apcoa.co.uk). Devon and Cornwall Rail directs passengers to check the price for their chosen station because station car parks differ between locations, with some free and others paid (dcrp.org.uk).
