Until they made the move to Pointon Park, Leek C.S.O.B. (County School Old Boys) played their home matches at Harrison Park, home of Leek Town. It was as long ago as 12th February 1992, when I saw them lose 1-3 to Stafford M.S.H.D. there in a Staffordshire Senior League match.

Leek were always in control of this, but they seemed to be unable to kill the visitors off, even though they won by a two goal margin. Thankfully, the rain arrived an hour later than forecast, and became steadier as the game went on, but the immaculate pitch stood up to it without a problem.
