Highest ground in Wales

Friday 30 June 2023, Blaenavon Blues 3 Cwmbran Town 1 - PSF, The Memorial Ground.

On a walking trip just over the English border so decided on a trip to this former pit village rather than a game towards Bristol


Also drawn in by seeing a game at the highest ground in Wales (365 M). The ground is not only hight but also surrounded by trees and fully railed, giving it an enclosed feel. A small stand plus two concrete dug outs, no lights.


The club house and changing rooms are in the same building, bar was selling cans of lager and cider plus hot drinks.


The hosts scored first but Cwmbran got back on terms quickly, Blaenavon then got the best goal of the game, to go in at the break two one up.


The hosts were on top most of the game, but did not add a third goal, till very late on and that was from the penalty spot.


Well contested game with a good crowd in attendance with a number supporting the visitors.
