The view
Position and angle
The north-eastern bend changes the line towards the wicket compared with the longer eastern boundary. Choose this bank for its cricket angle rather than guaranteed roof shelter. Use the official Worcester seating plan to place Mills Stand against the wicket and the neighbouring banks. Mills Stand: the highlighted plan here is a schematic, so the club’s ticket map remains the reference for choosing the individual seat.
Seating and rows
Mills is labelled between Brookes and Cathedral on the club map. Mills Stand: individual row ranges, restricted-view seats and row-by-row step-free routes are TBC in the published material. Ask the ticket office to check the offered Mills Stand seat if steps, a railing or an uninterrupted view would affect your visit.
