Moss Lane, Rugby league and football stadium in Altrincham, England.
The J Davidson Stadium is a rugby league and football ground in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, used by semi-professional clubs and development teams. It has two covered stands with seating and open terraced areas around the pitch.
The ground was laid out in 1910 as a local sports facility for the Altrincham area. Over the following decades it hosted several rugby league clubs before becoming linked to youth football development.
The ground is used by Manchester United women's and youth teams, which means it draws a very different crowd from a typical rugby league venue. On match days, supporters from two separate sporting worlds often share the same terraces.
Street parking is available around the ground, and food stalls open inside on match days. Getting there early is a good idea, as the terraced areas fill up gradually before kick-off.
Chorley Borough RLFC played here from 1989 to 1992, then renamed itself Blackpool Gladiators and moved away. This brief stay is a reminder of how often smaller rugby league clubs moved between grounds during that period.
