The park was opened in 1891 and was originally host to a number of different sports until 1990 when Hove Rugby Football Club moved in from nearby Hove Park and has subsequently turned the ground into four rugby pitches though cricket is still played in the summer, the wicket protected by the orange fencing in the distance.
