Building work

Whilst the work at Mill Farm stadium is nearing completion following the opening of our exclusive Mediterranean restaurant Milano’s, work is still full steam ahead elsewhere on the sight.

The levelling of the area for the 3G pitches is almost complete ready for a winter opening, whilst construction is well underway at the Euro Garages petrol station (see above), also due to open this year along with the KFC drive-thru.

Inside the stadium, work has begun on the ground floor offices, to the right of the main entrance, which will house the AFC Fylde backroom team and classrooms for the Community Foundation.
