Currently known as the Impact Arena because of sponsorship, North Street first opened in 1959 and has also played host to a rugby league team as well as Alfreton Town Football Club over the years. It has been the home of Alfreton Town throughout its existence, although there has been talk at numerous times about the club’s plans to move elsewhere. That has never quite come to fruition, if for no other reason than the club hasn’t been successful enough to warrant a move somewhere new. As a result, the Impact Area, to give the ground its current name, remains the club’s home for now and for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n

For their own part, Alfreton Town have been playing football since 1959, thanks to a merger of Alfreton Miners Welfare and Alfreton United. They club took the name of a different side that had previously played its games in the Midland League during the 1920s. The local council provided the ground for the club to play its games in, with the side playing its matches in the Central Alliance during its formative years. In the years that followed, Alfreton Town have bobbled around the lower divisions of English football, enjoying some relative successes during that time as well as some bad moments, which makes it all the more exciting.<\/p>\n

The Main Stand runs along about two-thirds of one side of the pitch. It is made up of three structures, the centre of which is a small covered seating area. The Tommy Bradley Terrace is a covered standing area to one side of it, whilst the Lottie Bradley Hospitality Area is on the other. On the opposite side is the Tom McRoy Stand, which is also covered and has seating but is much larger. The Bentley Close End is a seated area that is open to the weather, whilst a terrace known as the Tin End that is slightly covered stand opposite it.<\/p>\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n
