Panorama of Edgeley Park

A 10,900 seater arena, it consists of four stands, the main being the Danny Bergara Stand, which houses the changing rooms, benches and executive suites. The Cheadle End is a large stand behind one goal and holds over 5,000, more than the other three sides collectively. One of the largest single stands outside the Premier League, it’s the home of the most vocal County fans. The Family Stand on one side holds 2,400 fans and is split between home and away supporters, with travelling fans accommodating one corner.

The Railway End is an open seated stand at one end and is generally used to house the larger away followings, though it is sometimes used by home fans. The stadium scoreboard is behind this stand.
