Welsh News West Stand Woodland Field ground. New changing rooms were erected on the ground, the stand was refurbished and perimeter fencing was put in place to meet the League's requirements. Cwmtillery had previously used this ground for reserve games in the North Gwent League, as they used the Colliery Field ground a few hundred yards away for first team games in the Gwent County League. However, that ground - although extremely well-appointed- was unable to meet Welsh League criteria in one significant respect - the cost of erecting covered accommodation on the reclaimed colliery land was prohibitive. ABERYSTWYTH TOWN The new Crosville End stand was used for the first time for a League of Wales match against Barry Town in August. Part of a £250,000 development that has also seen the erection of a combined television gantry and executive box, Park Road is fast becoming one of the most attractive and best equipped grounds in the national league.
