Rossington Main FC

 

Oxford Street has been the home of Rossington Main since 1921, when the club moved from its previous home on a small piece of land at the rear of the Rossington Colliery offices. The ground has had many developments and additions since those days and currently boasts an approximate capacity of 2,000.

The ground is floodlit, with a 150 seated capacity Main Stand on the Oxford Street side of the ground. Additional seating can be found at the other end of the Oxford Street side with the 60 seat capacity Allotment Stand, and also on the opposite side of the ground in the 80 seat Park Wood Stand. There is also a covered terrace on the halfway line on the Main Stand side. In addition to the stand structures there is hard-standing the full circumference of the playing field.

Ground images, and a map of the ground layout can be found at the foot of this page.
