What's The Ground Like?

Certainly one of the better grounds in the League. On one side is the all seated covered Main Stand, which looks quite impressive. It is unusual in so much that at the back of the stand on either side of it, there are large gaps between the back of the roof and the stand below. Whilst in the middle of the stand at the back, there are a number of glass fronted areas to various Club offices. Opposite is the fair sized East Terrace that is covered and is quite steep. Even though like the rest ground, the stand is relatively new, it does have a gable with a clock sitting on its roof above the half way line, which gives it a touch of character. At one end is the Buildbase Stand, which is another single tiered all seated covered stand. This stand is given to away supporters. There is an electric scoreboard on the roof of this stand. Opposite at the North End of the ground, is a small covered terrace. The ground also has eight floodlight pylons, which are situated in groups of four on both sides of the ground.

Where to Drink?

There is the Broadhall Suite Bar at the ground, which normally welcomes away fans. However for some high profile games then only home fans are admitted. Otherwise Stevenage Town Centre is about a 15-20 minute walk away.

Where to Eat?

Across the roundabout from the ground there is a Business Park that has various eating outlets such as Pizza Hut, McDonalds & Burger King.

How to Get There by Car & Where to Park

Leave the A1 (M) at Junction 7 and take the A602 towards Stevenage. Go straight across the first roundabout and as you approach the next roundabout you can see the floodlights of the ground over on the right. However, if you go straight across the roundabout then you will see the entrance on the left to the large official car park which is free.

Nearest Train Station

Stevenage Station is located about a mile away from the stadium. It is served by trains from London Kings Cross & Peterborough.
