The facility was built in 1926 as a military sports ground for local armed forces. It was rebuilt and repurposed in the early 1970s to serve civilian football competitions and athletics.
The stadium bears the name of John Mackintosh's wife, a notable Gibraltar philanthropist who contributed to the local community development.
