Edgeley Park, Football stadium in Stockport, England
Edgeley Park is a football stadium in Stockport with four main stands and a total capacity of around 10,800 seats. The Cheadle End holds about 5,200 spectators and serves as the largest section of the ground.
The ground was first opened in 1891 for rugby league matches. Stockport County Football Club moved here permanently in 1902 when it left its previous home.
The Danny Bergara Stand was named in 2012 after a long-serving manager who shaped the club's identity. This section reminds visitors of the club's heritage and the people who built it.
Visitors can navigate the stadium easily using clear signage that marks the different entrances and areas. The Railway End section is reserved for travelling supporters and holds up to 1,560 people on match days.
In January 1958, the ground hosted two England national team training matches on the same day because Manchester's Maine Road was frozen. The stadium served as an important alternative venue for national football activities during harsh weather.
