Other Info:
The track is believed to have been built around 1958 and was used by Newport Harriers until the synthetic one at Newport Stadium opened in 1993. The surface is redgra and it is in reasonable condition with only a few weeds. The infield is the football pitch of Christchurch Hamdden FC who have their clubhouse at the track. There is also another clubhouse used by St. Julians H.S.O.B. RFC who play on the rugby pitch behind the track. There is also some rather run down public changing rooms at the track.
