Station Park, Football stadium in Forfar, Scotland
Station Park is a football stadium in Forfar featuring a main seated grandstand on the north side, covered terraces on the south, and uncovered standing areas on the east and west ends. The ground holds around 6,800 spectators and serves as home to both the men's and women's teams of the local club.
This stadium opened in 1888 and quickly became the center of local football activity. Its biggest crowd came in 1970 when approximately 10,800 spectators attended a match against a Scottish top-flight team.
The western terrace, known as the 'Mert End' because of a nearby former cattle market, traditionally hosts visiting supporters on match days. This area has shaped the stadium experience for generations and reflects how local geography influences the way fans gather here.
The stadium offers a mix of seated and standing areas, with some terraces covered for protection in bad weather. The main north grandstand provides the best view of the pitch, while other sections offer different angles for watching the game.
The ground serves Forfar Bridies on match days, traditional Scottish meat pastries that have been part of local food culture for generations. This stadium specialty links the match experience with regional eating habits in a way you will only find here.
