Grosvenor Vale is a football ground in Ruislip, north-west London, England. It is the home ground of Wealdstone F.C.. The current capacity of the ground is 4,085.[3]

History[]

The ground was first opened in 1947 to house Ruislip Manor F.C., who played there until the club collapsed as a result of financial difficulties in 2008, whereupon the lease for the ground was purchased by Wealdstone F.C.[4] Wealdstone moved into the stadium following 17 years of ground sharing with other clubs after leaving their Lower Mead ground in Harrow, 4 miles away.

The stadium has been slowly improved and expanded since then.[5]
