Stonebridge Road is a multi-purpose stadium in Northfleet, Gravesend, Kent, England, also known as The PHB Stadium for sponsorship reasons.〔 〕 It is primarily used for football matches. Stonebridge Road was constructed in 1905, and was initially the home of Northfleet F.C., which merged with Gravesend F.C. in 1946.〔 〕 It is currently the home ground of Ebbsfleet United F.C. (formerly Gravesend & Northfleet F.C.).〔 〕 Thus, Stonebridge Road has been the home of Ebbsfleet and its predecessor football clubs for over 100 years. Although one of the Fleet's local rivals, from 2000 to 2006 Dartford F.C. had a groundsharing agreement with Ebbsfleet United to use Stonebridge Road as its home field.〔 〕 Gillingham F.C. used Stonebridge Road briefly for home matches in 1961.〔 〕 Charlton Athletic Reserves also plays home matches at the ground.〔 〕 ==Ground details== The stadium has a capacity of 4,500 people.〔 〕 The average attendance for Ebbsfleet United home ties at Stonebridge Road was 1,165 in the 2006-2007 season.〔 When the Fleet plays at Stonebridge Road, the home supporters typically sit in the Main Stand or in the Plough End. Both those seating areas are covered, although seats were not installed in the Plough End, which is also called the Northfleet End, until 2006.〔 Home fans also stand in the terraced Stonebridge Road Stand, which runs along the length of the pitch on the side of the stadium closest to the street and which is also covered. Away supporters typically stand in the Swanscombe End, which is an open terrace.〔 The pitch size at Stonebridge Road is 112 by 72 yards for football matches,〔 and the pitch is presently maintained by groundsman Peter Norton.〔 〕 The postcode (for maps and directions) of Stonebridge Road is DA11 9GN.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stonebridge Road」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
