History

Before moving into the new modernised facility, Petershill had spent most of their existence (from 1935 until 2005) playing at the old Petershill Park.[2][3] In 2005, it was demolished and replaced with a modern structure that could also be used by the local community. This was also to be known as Petershill Park.

Facilities

The stadium can also hold up to 2,000 spectators, with one stand (known as the main stand) containing 500 seats. This stand is attached to the club building, containing a bar, a function room, gymnasium, dance studio and health suite. Opposite the main stand is two steps of terracing, with a business centre located next to the right side of the main stand. To the left of the main stand, is more terracing. The centre also has a full-size football pitch, plus a number of 5-a-side pitches.
