Smart fixtures sign outside.

I gained easy access through these gates, the matchday turnstiles are just to the right.

Through these gates.

Inside we are behind the goal, in a corner. Ahead is a small area of cover on the right.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-gsNe2F35tAs/TguRvEe89kI/AAAAAAAADrg/ypLOLJNIqH0/s400/DSCF1156.jpg)
Set behind the goal, on the left, is the changing rooms, club house, and associated buildings.. You can see the gates, on the imediate right, which forms the players 'tunnel'.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-07YBKKy69kc/TguRxXdKeDI/AAAAAAAADrk/IsAqp4gJOjY/s400/DSCF1157.jpg)
Here it is.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-eMMFXbqHHdE/TguR0KPE_BI/AAAAAAAADro/70GzRIdHelE/s400/DSCF1158.jpg)
Behind the goal is an open hard standing path all the way along, with well kept grass behind it.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-_TXMKlJUbUs/TguR45AqqzI/AAAAAAAADrs/Eeoio5InfaI/s400/DSCF1159.jpg)
Here we are on the hard standing, note that 'strange' bit of cover behind the goal.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5J1uObGf5a4/TguR9Uzm2KI/AAAAAAAADrw/Ic19JxEqqgs/s400/DSCF1160.jpg)
Behind the net we see right, to the cover & dugouts.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-edPYrzcxXIM/TguR_7VV5OI/AAAAAAAADr0/6reLtOKnulo/s400/DSCF1161.jpg)
Immediately behind the net is this strange cover, I presume a 'smiking enclosure' for those using the bar facilities, rather than for those to watch the match from!
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-NegM6dSpG1k/TguSEVGgS4I/AAAAAAAADr4/aDV7QyPBvBw/s400/DSCF1162.jpg)
Past the other post, to our left, is the seating on the far isde.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Pbmf71rqb18/TguSJc5C2AI/AAAAAAAADsA/btkJmW-Msj8/s400/DSCF1163.jpg)
Past the post it's hard standing up to the next corner, with some picnic pub garden style tables for the social drinkers.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-TkCbP_P_uCw/TguSM3xhVSI/AAAAAAAADsE/uMka-qg9x_4/s400/DSCF1164.jpg)
From the corner we glance back along the clubhouse end.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-tV14cbRZbrM/TguSPZCAnOI/AAAAAAAADsI/80QyybcTu9c/s400/DSCF1165.jpg)
A corner flag(less) shot.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-i34TUKZhoAc/TguSRWboMbI/AAAAAAAADsQ/gc0Q3tPS7rs/s400/DSCF1166.jpg)
Down the side is more hard standing, some sort of storage area, and even a hedge!
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-kQ7UaoNzeag/TguSUAjgxxI/AAAAAAAADsU/s1vb73g2kUk/s400/DSCF1167.jpg)
Past that is the seating, the modern style bland stand which is the nicest, but perfextly functional for clubs who can't afford anything fancy.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ANYhiCTVXH4/TguSZUjaoeI/AAAAAAAADsY/qXwpiPQLZGI/s400/DSCF1168.jpg)
We have now reached the main stand.
![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Eq0O-Ns8e0g/TguScRoBSbI/AAAAAAAADsc/IR4uUetOwm4/s400/DSCF1169.jpg)
At the back we look along the rows of green seats, with the far open end in the background.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-3iOZC8GlBHQ/TguSe4TieCI/AAAAAAAADsg/tfyI-2QLq5A/s400/DSCF1170.jpg)
In the centre is a small table for the press to rest their notepads.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-tAzxG2plUhU/TguSiPb8vqI/AAAAAAAADsk/tTvQJSGR5KM/s400/DSCF1171.jpg)
The covered terrace is opposite, with the dugouts either side of it. This must have been the main stand in the past, from the look of it.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-hD3Oc7Q_ea4/TguSkjTF1_I/AAAAAAAADso/XFLdw1qq86U/s400/DSCF1172.jpg)
Some of the new stand is for the visiting officials.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-MW7cVjl3YXQ/TguSnUtD_MI/AAAAAAAADss/AG6xT0YCU2k/s400/DSCF1173.jpg)
Past the seats is more hard standing, with flat grass behind.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-56bssGLZWcw/TguSqSksPnI/AAAAAAAADsw/0q5khg2WH3s/s400/DSCF1174.jpg)
From this side we look over to the next end.
![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-B4RQxin58r8/TguSs9f_peI/AAAAAAAADs0/RAmmP62tBGI/s400/DSCF1175.jpg)
Turning back, the length of the stand side, back up to it.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ycBgLD_2ckk/TguSwRsAfSI/AAAAAAAADs4/JLi-20ZJjUc/s400/DSCF1176.jpg)
The next corner photo.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-7yEk2DB1TZQ/TguSzlrmsNI/AAAAAAAADs8/LmcTicyOP98/s400/DSCF1177.jpg)
More of the open hard standing, with plenty of grass, behind this goal.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-DutpQZhEdX0/TguS22191_I/AAAAAAAADtA/0b0X2kjre68/s400/DSCF1178.jpg)
The cover & dugouts, from behind this net.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pM12l501j0w/TguS5uBFkuI/AAAAAAAADtE/JjSle4xvFAY/s400/DSCF1179.jpg)
Continuing on our circuit, past the goal.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-RvrfQMFip_Q/TguS9cvIPaI/AAAAAAAADtI/AlAQRaiQD9M/s400/DSCF1180.jpg)
Beyond the dugouts side is an open expanse, presumably a training area.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-d1IfDyGzzOY/TguTBkIxoFI/AAAAAAAADtM/EUqY1K2XA_I/s400/DSCF1181.jpg)
More open hard standing down this side, up to the covered shed.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-jr6QYeWQQUA/TguTQDa5w6I/AAAAAAAADtQ/33CXPxdzzlM/s400/DSCF1182.jpg)
The pather deviates from it's straight line here, & there is a training goal behind the cover.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-RRmIHAy-yVo/TguTX5o0EUI/AAAAAAAADtY/8wSMmVRylOs/s400/DSCF1183.jpg)
One level of raised hard standing under the roof, I can't be sure, but if memory serves me correct had seats under it when I saw The Hamlet here.
![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-4Ej-aQUYs4Q/TguTj4h37jI/AAAAAAAADtc/d19Q1dvbtfs/s400/DSCF1184.jpg)
One of the dugouts.
![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-e8jvPSCmX88/TguTnLBZ9XI/AAAAAAAADtg/OaK7-KkwnOQ/s400/DSCF1185.jpg)
The new stand, opposite.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-uHroz6ROiNo/TguTshcyQ2I/AAAAAAAADtk/CUnSqZo6gNM/s400/DSCF1186.jpg)
Here is the covered terrace, from the frontal side.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-VUwnH054EZc/TguT_uzqL7I/AAAAAAAADt8/_NSLXhvy_0s/s400/DSCF1192.jpg)
Past the second dugout now, almost completing our flying visit.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ovb6S2q5syk/TguTvhQCZnI/AAAAAAAADto/syjJ31jtR28/s400/DSCF1187.jpg)
From this side we look to the clubhouse end.
![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Ck_pcyb24VI/TguTxzltbrI/AAAAAAAADts/9q9sgA__ZXY/s400/DSCF1188.jpg)
And we are almost back at the turnstiles, in the corner where we began.
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-8vrmmKyBM_M/TguT3cFSnUI/AAAAAAAADtw/D8FciTA7MvE/s400/DSCF1189.jpg)
One last look behind the goal, where we came in, & it's time to go.
![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-k6HcYXWAiwU/TguT9RolbkI/AAAAAAAADt4/j-T9_61HmFQ/s400/DSCF1191.jpg)
League sponsors signage...well it WAS current when I took this set of pictures!
