A wooden stand was erected in the 1920s, and for several years had an Anderson shelter on either side.[7] Floodlights were installed in 1989,[3] and the wooden stand was demolished after being condemned in the 1990s. In 2006 the club left Fairfield Road and groundshared with Bedford United & Valerio whilst a new ground was built on Langford Road.
The new ground, named the Carlsberg Stadium for sponsorship purposes, was opened for the start of the 2008–09 season, with the first game on 13 August 2008 between Biggleswade Town and Hertford Town resulting in a 1–0 for the home team.[8] The ground has a capacity of 3,000, of which 300 is seated.[1]
