I've not watched a game here before but I have visited on many occasions whilst playing cricket on the field behind it, so I will give you the visit only report.

PLAIN HAM is a very basic Western League Ground that has been refused enter into the Southern League on many occasions, limiting the club to this level at the most. Not only is the ground basic but the road leading into the ground is not wide enough for a coach to get down. As you enter the ground to your left is the nicely worked clubhouse with a selection of drinks and snacks at very decent prices, however it is a small clubhouse. You can then enter the ground through a single turnstile which takes you down past the dressing rooms. The near side goal end is raised above the pitch as it is on a grass bank so viewing can be good sat down on the grass bank. To the left is a small untidy seated stand which holds about 30-40 people which is also raised about the pitch. The opposite side to this is a pavement with a railing all the way across allowing standing on the side. It is nestled in front of some big woodland trees. This is the same behind the far goal with a railing and tree's behind it.
