Manor Club Stand & Cuckoo Lane Stand
The Manor Club Stand (above left) was built in 1949 at a cost of £4,000 with the changing rooms
housed underneath. It holds 145 seats for members of the ‘exclusive’ club. The smaller Cuckoo
Lane End Stand (above right) holds 108 seats which are mainly for guests and club staff.
Main Stand side
Built at a cost of £32,820 in 1955 by the Supporters Club, the main stand holds around 1500
seats in the top section with a family stand in
the lower right paddock. The remainder of the
paddock area and the area towards the London
Road End is open terrace, strangely, and at
odds with the Cuckoo Lane End, minus any
crush barriers.
