On 18th January 1997 I saw St. Leonards Stamcroft lose 0-1 here to Newport A.F.C. in an F.A. Trophy 1st Round match in front of 501 spectators. The ground can no longer host 11 a side games, as a small 3G pitch has been built at one end, meaning it is too short to fit a full length pitch here now. 25 years on from my visit here and there is a surprising amount of evidence that a high level of non-league football was played here up until 2004. It is now just used for training.
