Ground facts

Openedunknown (This is a distinct venue from the better-known East End Park football stadium in Dunfermline, Scotland -- confirmed via Wikipedia's disambiguation page as separate entries. This East End Park is a public park in the Osmondthorpe area of Leeds, acquired by the council in the late 19th century; no opening date specific to its rugby league pitch is documented. The connection to home club East Leeds ARLFC is confirmed only via the two match records themselves -- the club's own published ground history (Black Dog Pub, then a working men's club, then a Liberal club) does not mention East End Park, an unresolved gap rather than a contradiction.)

Name history

    Rugby league history

Its two recorded rugby league matches, both independently confirmed against Rugby League Project, were Challenge Cup first-round ties for East Leeds ARLFC: a 2015 defeat to Kells (12-20) and a 2018 defeat to Thornhill (10-28).
