Lovely football ground, which is only left down by the number of steps around the concourse.
In reality, these steps severely limit the area that wheelchair users can visit.
There are lots of areas that are marked "do not stand here", however, the locals and stewards seem to completely ignore them. Most notably, the one nearest to the hone entrance.

History (from Wikipedia)
Ground[edit]
The club played firstly at Stockton Lane in Stockton Heath in 1949, arriving at London Road in 1950, then moving to its first ground on Loushers lane (the Cheshire Police Ground) in 1953, returning to further down Stockton Lane in Grappenhall in 1955. The following year, the club moved to Cantilever Park, which had a capacity of 2,500 as of November 2014. It takes its name from the Cantilever Bridge, a high-level road bridge on Ackers Road over the Manchester Ship Canal that towers over the ground to the east. The ground itself is on the northern bank of the canal. The ground consists of three stands, one of which is seated.
