Directions:


By Car
Leave the M1 at junction 28 and take the A38 towards Derby. After around two miles take the B600 towards Alfreton. A half a mile further on you will see a Total Garage on your right and a Catholic Church on your left. Turn left just after the church into North Street. The ground is down the bottom of this street on the right. There is a small car park at the ground, otherwise there is plenty of street parking.


By Train
Alfreton station is located just over one mile away from the ground and is about a 20-25 minute walk away from the ground. It is served by trains from Nottingham & Chesterfield.

Come out of the station entrance and turn right onto Mansfield Road. Cross the road to the other side and take the second left into Prospect Street. At the bottom of Prospect Street, turn right onto Nottingham Road, then take the second left into Victoria Street and the ground is down on the right. Thanks to Adam Hodson for providing the directions.


 

 

General Information:

The Impact Arena is a typical non-league ground, made up of a mixture of small stands and terracing. It has been home to the club since 1959 when the club were formed. The ground is a real mixture of styles. There is seating on three sides for around 1,500 although most of it is uncovered and just a few rows of seats bolted onto the terraces. The ground is smartly painted red and surrounded by trees giving it a really nice rural feel when the sun is shining. The Reds Bar in the ground is very popular on matchdays. The stadium was given its FA grade B licence earlier in the season meaning it is fit to host Conference football, although if their ambitions are for League football in the future significant work will need to be carried out.

A Fans View:

Away fans are mostly housed in the mostly open terrace at one end of the ground. This end can accommodate around 1,200 supporters. In addition a small amount of seats are also made available in the covered seating area on one side of the pitch. This area though does have a number of supporting pillars that may impede your view. At the back of the open terrace there is a small covered area, which can provide some shelter but only for a relatively small number of fans, plus again there are a number of supporting pillars to contend with. I enjoyed my visit to the stadium and found it to be a friendly one.
