War Memorial Athletic Ground

Another three sided ground shared with a cricket pitch. Behind one goal there is limited uncovered terracing and behind the other a decent stand providing covered terracing. Along the side of the pitch that has a stand it really is a curious affair. It covers around two thirds of the length of the pitch and seems as though it is three stands joined into. At either end there is covered terracing with a barn shaped central portion that contains a few seats (less than 50).
A nice rural location and evidence of old disused gates suggest bigger crowds in days gone by. The ground has been here since 1888 and current capacity is 2,000.
