There is also a bus service from Stoke on trent to Leek.

Take any bus outside stoke station going to the city centre. Walk to Hanley bus station & the no. 18 leaves Hanley bus station every 20 minutes to Leek.
Journey time from Stoke station to Leek is about 1 hour.

If anyone hasnt been to Leek's ground before, its on the Macc side of leek,and its pretty much on your right hand side as you come out of the wilds into leek, Im trying to think if two other football grounds (aside of macc & leek) are divided by such a beautiful stretch of road over such a short distance

If you are going to come on the train make sure you get off at Macclesfield as its a lot quicker to get to Leek Town (20 min journey)as opposed to Stoke where it takes probably 25mins to get to Leek but 30 mins to get through Leek as the roadworks in Leek are terrible!!Coming from Macc you dont have to go through Leek and its infamous roadworks as the ground is on the outskirts of Leek on the road out to Macclesfield.
