100% the correct answer looking at the issues escaping from North of the river. Very easy exit and trip home from Wandsworth (it’s more than a 15 min walk though !)
Yes. Details here :

I think I am still going to stay just south of the river in Wandsworth - same lack of parking restrictions, 30 min walk and almost certainly will save time in traffic.
Only used the ST bus a couple of times (from BH), usually went via Haywards Heath. Probably stop en route (Cobham most likely perhaps) to avoid getting there too early......
If coming from the South, maybe Wandsworth. Less than a 2 mile walk to the ground and parking restrictions largely lifted on Boxing Day so should be able to find somewhere.
