During the 1966 World Cup it was used by the Portugal national team as a training ground and has also had the honour of hosting a soccer school run by Brazilian legend Jairzinho during the summer of 1993.
It has a covered main stand on the west side of the pitch that can seat approximately 250 and contains the changing rooms underneath; the other three sides of the pitch are uncovered and surrounded by nothing more than a railing.

The old clubhouse, demolished in November 2014
In April 2014 the club announced that they had been awarded a £5,000 grant from Capital One as part of the company's Grounds For Improvement competition. This money was used for two new dugouts, a brand-new hard-standing surface directly from the tunnel to the dugout areas and new storage facilities.[1] In the recent months the club has managed to install seats in its main stand and has begun rebuilding its club house after the old structure was demolished in November 2014. A new F.A standard 5 a-side pitch has also been built.
Further work on the stadium took place over the summer of 2018 thanks to the club winning a £50,000 Buildbase bursary.[2] The clubhouse and changing rooms were refurbished and a new external cafe was opened.[3]
