History
The stadium opened in 1885 and has served as home to Hyde United FC throughout its history. It has also hosted reserve matches for both Manchester City and Manchester United over the years.
Culture
The venue underwent a color shift from traditional red to blue during a partnership with Manchester City, then returned to red through community efforts. This transformation reflects how deeply supporters and the local community identify with their team.
