Nickname: The Saints
The Saints’ home at the Playing Fields was,
until their transfer, a quintessential Isthmian
League venue: tucked away in a Home Counties
town, surrounded by greenery ... and unchanged
to the extent that visiting it is a bit like
stepping out of a time machine.
The club has played there since 1952, and the
stand was built by volunteers four years later.
It has been re-roofed and re-cladded since then,
but its numbered wooden seats are still
providing good service.
Unfortunately the large clubhouse that extends
along half of the near touchline (built in 1985)
obscures the view of a large part of the pitch.
If that wasn’t bad enough, there are also a few
roof supports and a floodlight pylon to contend
with!
A small lean-to added on to the clubhouse
provides additional shelter. There are a few
token steps of terracing set into the shallow
grass bank behind the near goal, and also at the
opposite end; whilst the two dugouts have
alternate wooden seats in the club colours - a
nice touch.
Local building regs will probably ensure that
nothing much changes until the ground is
inevitably sold for development and the club has
a new ground built as part of the deal. |
