Stadium History & Features

Littlehampton reached the FA Cup first round in 1990–91 and the FA Vase final at Wembley in 2021–22, losing 3–0 to Newport Pagnell Town.

The ground shares its site with a cricket club — football and cricket pitches overlap at the start of each season, requiring seasonal adjustments to barriers and walkways.
