Shawe View

I could not get into this ground so as you see all photos are taken from outside. The ground appears not so friendly with barbed wire fences either to keep people out or to keep them in!


A small main stand holds a few seats (about 200) on one side of the ground and a slightly larger stand on the opposite side provides some covered terracing. The remainder of the ground is single level concrete terracing with metal railings. A simple little ground. The ground has been here since 1946 but the current club have only been in existence since 1990. The seats in the main stand came from Huddersfield Towns old Leeds Road ground. Grass banking and a few houses provide the Mancunian backdrop. The ground has also been used for reserve games played by Altrincham and some rugby league games.
