New Bucks Head, Sports venue in Telford, United Kingdom
New Bucks Head is a sports venue in Telford, United Kingdom, serving as the home ground for AFC Telford United. The stadium features a main seated stand along one side, with terracing on the opposite side and behind one goal, while the other end has a smaller standing area.
The site has hosted football since the late 19th century, and the current stadium was rebuilt in the early 2000s after the original ground fell into disrepair. It has since become the permanent home of the town's football club.
The ground is a focal point for local football fans, who gather here to support their team and create a lively matchday atmosphere. The club's colors and banners are visible around the stands, and the crowd's songs are a big part of the experience.
Visitors can reach the ground on foot from Telford town center, and the main entrance is clearly signposted. It is advisable to arrive early on match days to avoid queues at the turnstiles and to find a good spot in the stands.
The stadium's record attendance was set in 2015 when over 5,000 spectators watched a match against a higher-division opponent. The ground also has a small memorial garden behind one of the stands, dedicated to longtime supporters.
