Overall Rating
Average
The ground is on Coatbridge Main St not far from the Coatdyke Roundabout. There are a number of turnstiles to go through to enter the ground. Once through the gate you can go left or right up a number of steps to get to the football park its self you also require to go this way to enter the stand. The stand is very old and dates back to the 1920s. However it is well maintained
Disabled Access In and Around
Average
Disabled access is via the car park gate on East Stewart St you then go along past the back of the goal posts at that end of the ground and in to a covered area. This is a wooden structure that is basic but again for the size of the club is ideal. However the view from the disability area is limited with people leaning over the barrier in the rest of the ground. The area from the gate round is basically just ash so could be dirty in wet weather. The ground at the disability section is tar which again is ideal for the size of the club.
Parking & Transport
Average
There is some parking in the streets around the ground and there is a car park with in the ground its self. There is a charge for this but it is free to Blue Badge holders. The car park can be accessed via East Stewart St. It should be noted that the car park area is not that large but it is ideal for the size of the club.
Accessible Toilets
Average
There is an accessible toilet next to the disabled access area it can be found by going past the club food outlet area. The toilet is basic but again for the size of the club is ideal
Staff
Good
The ground stewards and catering staff were all very nice and helpful
Additional Information
The programme recommends that anyone wishing to use the disability area book in advance. As the club have just been promoted to league 1 this might be advisable if you are planning to travel with an away team.
