It's set in a public park.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qvzKmGgaI/AAAAAAAADpw/VSEFQK9Pmkw/s400/PICT0234.jpg)
This is the outer wall of the main club building, which includes the Petershill Park Leisure Centre.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw1usLBYI/AAAAAAAADro/GV6pfm4ctUY/s400/PICT0263.jpg)
There is a separate entrance for the players.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw3mdNGCI/AAAAAAAADrs/LYeEh04epYM/s400/PICT0264.jpg)
As you can see from this sign.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw5gqTJtI/AAAAAAAADrw/CuOkfUfgoGU/s400/PICT0265.jpg)
This is the main entrance, there is a bar area inside.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw8TLWuYI/AAAAAAAADr4/Jw1r3n9NrgA/s400/PICT0267.jpg)
Just through the doors are some wall displays portraying the past glories of the club.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw_8dWFuI/AAAAAAAADsA/fjGXOOUavno/s400/PICT0270.jpg)
Back past the corner of the building we enter the ground through this open gate. Note the closed turnstiles, with the 'Spectators' lettering above, to the left.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qw0DlGz-I/AAAAAAAADrk/r6BeEJROHV0/s400/PICT0262.jpg)
Here they are on the other side.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv1JoraXI/AAAAAAAADp0/Xr_-3-BWqrQ/s400/PICT0235.jpg)
To our left is the impressive main stand.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv28CM8zI/AAAAAAAADp4/1GNcqPSU5io/s400/PICT0236.jpg)
To our right is a pathway, in front of some buildings, not connected to the actual football, I think, with netting obscuring the playing surface.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv5vJggBI/AAAAAAAADp8/9SO5im1-mUc/s400/PICT0237.jpg)
Here is the same end, pitchside, so no viewing from this end, making it-effectively-a three sided ground.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv7SNBcdI/AAAAAAAADqA/XXw6Tmr_hg4/s400/PICT0238.jpg)
We are going to head toward the main stand, going round the ground clockwise.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv9o72VFI/AAAAAAAADqE/v9FW486ccnc/s400/PICT0239.jpg)
On the wall is a hoarding from the main sponsors.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qv_5S3CDI/AAAAAAAADqI/2BZMygVzZdw/s400/PICT0240.jpg)
Here we look along the seats, from the back of them. We see the open, railed far end for the first time.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwCXwY5yI/AAAAAAAADqM/Op15g-2vlQY/s400/PICT0241.jpg)
Turning back we look toward the 'empty' end.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwFNZ3_YI/AAAAAAAADqQ/DroRs0TFU7I/s400/PICT0242.jpg)
Now facing the way we are going once more, we look over to the entire far end, and also see the open hard standing clearly in front of the seats.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwHlP1hRI/AAAAAAAADqU/PKahN6zqBfM/s400/PICT0243.jpg)
Modern day funding for a modern stadium.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwJ6256cI/AAAAAAAADqY/1qJOwst5fus/s400/PICT0244.jpg)
At the end of the stand is this door, presumably leading into the changing rooms.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwLqdWt9I/AAAAAAAADqc/eHzsV0Xa3h0/s400/PICT0245.jpg)
I guess this, due to this gate in the pitch surround, which acts as the 'tunnel'.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwOtB7uqI/AAAAAAAADqg/2wbXDcEUiJc/s400/PICT0246.jpg)
Now we look back along the seating from the other end. Note the park bench. Unfortunately I didn't pay any attention to it on my visit, so can't tell you what the small plaque on it says.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwQ3S9PvI/AAAAAAAADqk/HxY1ansuZbY/s400/PICT0247.jpg)
Now behind the open goal, rather than tarmac there is a sort of shale type area.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwS8SbfVI/AAAAAAAADqo/bMd3mD_koPg/s400/PICT0248.jpg)
A corner angle, looking across the pitch, toward the open far side, & the dugouts.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwU6UqcvI/AAAAAAAADqs/8AUPtk8lLSU/s400/PICT0249.jpg)
From just behind the goal we see the main stand once more.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwW4TK2kI/AAAAAAAADqw/JGlYtnC-7xo/s400/PICT0250.jpg)
On the perimeter netting the club emblem is nicely woven in.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwahfLRFI/AAAAAAAADq4/IGbIOxzuvgU/s400/PICT0251.jpg)
At our next flagless 'corner flag' shot. Across the pitch, toward the seats again.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwdN6esJI/AAAAAAAADq8/O4WwxVvMgS0/s400/PICT0252.jpg)
Along the third side now, with a few steps of terracing, givng a raised vantage point.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwfGB5EEI/AAAAAAAADrA/dMWQF8CvJaI/s400/PICT0253.jpg)
Note the plethora of goals along here. A good example of how these all weather pitches can be utilised 27/7, if need be.
![](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwiF-VDRI/AAAAAAAADrE/S0-FGxR4IYk/s400/PICT0254.jpg)
This time we see the seats, while standing on the terracing.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwkKmeN-I/AAAAAAAADrI/ZGaS-Fz8RDQ/s400/PICT0255.jpg)
This is one of the dugouts.
![](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwm4-U5VI/AAAAAAAADrM/ww8PNE5c-CI/s400/PICT0256.jpg)
And here we look back down the terraced side.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwoRPh_0I/AAAAAAAADrQ/rrF-s3-oGUc/s400/PICT0257.jpg)
Now almost behind the goal, no spectators allowed to stand at this end.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwqLyA4kI/AAAAAAAADrU/A-C4XEzry0E/s400/PICT0258.jpg)
From here we can see the far corner, where we came into the ground.
![](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwrguQ0eI/AAAAAAAADrY/WRiuu5rwZkA/s400/PICT0259.jpg)
As you can clearly see, there is nothing to be seen at this end.
![](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8Mqu1wmEwRw/S5qwuAcMeuI/AAAAAAAADrc/TJ-hIHxzdm8/s400/PICT0260.jpg)
Even if you press up to the netting itself.
