The Friday session is held at Chepstow Leisure Centre, Welsh Street, Chepstow, NP16 5LX, in the grounds of Chepstow Comprehensive school (click here for a map). This high ceiling, airy venue has excellent parking facilities and provides ample space for both steam (non-electric) and electric fencing.

The club here is well equipped with beginners kit and also runs two boxes for more experienced fencers. As in our Newport site, primarily foil and epee are practiced, however we do have some members who dabble in sabre. The centre has its own bar on site, the perfect place to unwinding after a hard session!
