Ground
The club initially played near the village green or in a field now part of the Horseshoe road, with the nearby Rose & Crown pub used as changing rooms.[4] They later moved to the Pancake Lane ground, which was part of the Gorhambury Estate owned by John Grimston.[1] When Grimston died, the land on which the ground is located was transferred to the Crown, although it is managed by the Commission for New Towns.[1] Floodlights were installed in 1999 after several years of opposition from the local council.[1] New changing rooms were built in 2007 and a 113-seat stand was installed during the 2009–10 season.[1]
