Foxfields Construction
Since the club was formed one of the main goals was to get a pitch on Foxfield Park.
This was one of the features of the Park when Grange Park was designed.
So since 2006 we have been in regular dialogue with our Parish Council, keeping them
up to date with the club developments. During 2008 Grange Park were fortunate to receive a large
grant from the Football Foundation with other income from the original developers and
the WNDC our Parish council drew up plans for a facility we would use and for a cricket
table to be installed.
Here are a few snap shots of the development since it started in January 2008.
