Ground facts

Openedunknown (This site's area field reads Leicester (Loughborough), but Loughborough is a genuinely separate town roughly 10-15 miles from Leicester, not a Leicester suburb -- another instance of the recurring misleading area-field pattern. Holywell Park itself is a Loughborough University-owned site (a former National Grid technology park acquired in 2003, with a business park and conference centre opened in 2004); no opening date specific to its outdoor sports pitches, distinct from the university's main stadium, could be confirmed.)
