This general view of the ground looks towards the clubhouse (left), car park (centre) and spectator cover (right). Five of the eight floodlights are also to be seen - these are a requirement for clubs playing at Step 6 of the non-league pyramid. Edge Green Street has been the home of Ashton Town since 1964. The club were founder members of the North West Counties Football League in 1982, remaining there until relegated from Division 1 at the end of the 2016-17 season. This photograph was taken on the last day of their relegation season, when they entertained Carlisle City and registered a 3-2 win, only their fifth of the season.
