Crosspool-based football club Hallam FC have released images of their proposed new £280,000 clubhouse.
The new building will include a history of football visitors centre to celebrate Sandygate’s status of being officially the oldest football ground in the world. The developments are being funded by the late Roger Bell, who left a financial gift for the club when he passed away.
Hallam’s postponed 150th anniversary Boxing Day match against Sheffield FC has bee rearranged for Monday 2 May.
A £280,000 visitors centre is likely to be built in 2011 at Sandygate after a loyal fan left Hallam football club an unexpected donation in his will.
Long-term supporter Roger Bell followed the Countrymen home and away but never told anyone at the Crosspool club his plans to leave them a financial gift when he passed away.
The money will be used to fund ground improvements, including a visitors centre and new clubhouse.
