Spytty Park

County fans will remember “The Shed” (a covered terrace stand running in the length of the pitch) fondly as its shape and corigated walls and roof helped up the level of noise created inside the ground and led to a fantastic atmosphere. With the occasional pre-season match as wel as Wales Youth and Women’s international games now held at the stadium, County fans still have the chance to watch some football at Spytty. Also Newport City play League matches at the ground every other weekend. Als the Club Offices and Training Base are located at Spytty Park.
