History

Boreham Wood moved to Meadow Park from Eldon Avenue in 1963.[3] A new main stand was built shortly afterwards. This was demolished in 1999 and replaced by a new cantilever stand.[3] A new West Stand was opened in 2014.[4]

The ground's record attendance of 4,030 was set for a friendly match against Arsenal on 13 July 2001.[3]
