This ground opened in 08/2010 as the Globe Arena. Tt replaced the old ground, Christie Park, or Crusty Pie, as it was known to some, which had been their home since 1921. This photo was taken on 19/05/2024 when the site surrounding the ground and some facilities inside were open for Ribble Vehicle Preservation Trust's Morecambe Rally & Running Day.

The stadium holds up to 6,476 supporters, with 2,173 seats available in the Main Stand, which runs the length of one side of the pitch, the main entrance of which is seen here. Opposite the Main Stand is an uncovered terrace with a capacity of 606, giving a similar feel to the ground as that at the former ground of Christie Park.

More commonly known as Holker Street. The final game of the EFL League 2 regular season 2023/24. Barrow needed to win to remain in the play-off places. Mansfield were already promoted. A draw sadly was not enough for Barrow having been in the play-off places since the November 2023 I think without looking at the records. Barrow contrived to lose five out of the last seven matches of the season. A 1-1 draw at Crawley and this game. Mansfield were promoted, along with moneybags Stockport County and Wrexham. Crawley were promoted via the play-offs. Of those teams, as I post this photo Wrexham are second in League 1, Mansfield third, Stockport sixth and Crawley, 22nd.

For the record here: George Marris, 16th. Minute for Mansfield Town. Kian Spence, 58th. Minute for Barrow AFC. Attendance: 5,668. Date: 27/04/2024.
