General Information:

York Road has been the home ground of Maidenhead United F.C. since 1871 and is acknowledged by the FA to be the oldest continuously used senior Association Football ground in the world. The ground was initially the home of Maidenhead Cricket Club and it was with their kind permission that shortly after the Football Club began in 1870, Maidenhead played their first match at York Road on Thursday, 16th February 1871 against Marlow. According to the official club site the capacity of the ground is 4,500 though the record attendance was 7,989 back in 1936. The post-war record was 5,597 in 1962. The Magpies have continued to play home matches here, without a break, to the present day. The ground facilitates fans in a mixture of covered all-seater stands, covered and uncovered traditional terraces and flat concrete by the side of the pitch. As well as the normal facilities for lower league football, the ground hosts Stripes Bar which can be hired out for functions. The ground is located just a few minutes walk away from the town centre and from Maidenhead railway station.
