5. OTHER GROUNDS WHICH HAVE BEEN USED
Each of the locations given below has been used for Academy (Under 19) games in the past. No agreements are in place to use them again at present, but the details are provided for convenience, as if they are utilised, it is likely to be at short notice.
STAINES LAMMAS FOOTBALL CLUB
Please note that this club is completely independent of Staines Town FC. It has its own ground in Laleham (although the club’s First Team are currently groundsharing at Ashford Town (Middlesex) FC). Matters may be further confused by the fact that the club started life in 1926 and took their name from The Lammas grounds on which they then played – these grounds still exist but are several miles from the club’s present home!
These directions relate to the modern Staines Lammas FC, located about 1 mile to the south east of Staines Town FC.
DIRECTIONS: From STFC, go right onto Wheatsheaf Lane, right onto Laleham Road (which becomes Staines Road) and left (last exit) at the small roundabout onto The Broadway. Look for The Turks Head pub immediately on the left, and the ground entrance is right opposite.
