The ground is fully enclosed with a covered terrace in the corner next to the changing rooms. There's dugouts on each side with the clubhouse situated near the entrance. 

A bad tempered affair saw the host race into a three goal lead. Sam Noar fired home from a right wing cross in the 10th minute, followed by Sam John tapping home a rebounded shot, before Mike Taylor adding a third from the penalty spot. The first half came to an abrupt end when a bad tackle on Sam Noar, saw him carted off to hospital in a car during the half-time break.A red card was finally shown in the 55th minute when the Hindsford number 9 was dismissed for another nasty challenge. Taylor added his second with a cracking finish on 77 minutes, before a late consolation for the visitors.An eventful afternoon was rounded off by a substituted Hindsford player going raggie and ended up having fisty cuffs with the team coach inside the dugout -  so overall a great afternoon's entertainment|

321 mile round trip doors-to-doors.I drove to Katie and Lee's for a 9am departure from Houghton, traveling as a passenger in Blossom along with Connor, who we picked up off the A19 at Peterlee.As per usual,we started our day off in a JDW, driving directly to The Kingfisher in Poynton for pre-match lunch. In between the two matches in Cheadle we called to the Gateway in East Didsbury, which is also GBG listed, which isn't surprising as the two ales I supped were both top class. An enjoyable and eventful day which included a barney in a dugout, a spooky walk through a graveyard, a flying pint of ale and a near fatal dunsh, which would have seen an ambulance, a hospital and definitely the end of the road for Blossom. This trip was sadly the last one from the North-East Groundhopping Contingent for a while, as Katie heads back to her roots tomorrow for a two month break to see her family back in New Zealand. Happy trails and hopefully some Kiwi ground for her to tick off while she's away. x.
