Grosvenor Vale (also simply known as The Vale) is a football ground in Ruislip, West London, England. It is the home ground of Wealdstone F.C. and Watford FC Women. The current capacity of the ground is 4,085.[3]

History

[edit]

The ground was first opened in 1947 to house Ruislip Manor FC,[4] who played there until the club collapsed in 2008 due to financial difficulties.[5] The lease for the site was then purchased by Wealdstone FC who had ground shared with other clubs for 17 years after leaving their Lower Mead stadium in Harrow in 1991. Since then, beginning with supporter-led efforts,[6] the site has been slowly improved and expanded as Wealdstone have progressed back up the non-league pyramid.

In the summer of 2022 Watford F.C. Women agreed to play the upcoming season at Grosvenor Vale.[7]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
