Scholes Lane, St Helens, England — opened unknown, 2 rugby league games hosted, home of Portico Vine A.R.L.F.C. (amateur rugby league, St Helens RFC community club).
Ground facts
| Opened | unknown (No opening date is documented for the ground itself; the resident club secured a 25-year council lease in 2018, which is a tenancy date rather than the site's founding. Confirmed as a small amateur community venue, distinct from St Helens RFC's professional Totally Wicked Stadium -- the resident club is merely one of Saints' affiliated community clubs, not the professional side itself. The reason visiting club British Police RLFC (normally based in Rochdale) played two Challenge Cup ties here rather than at their usual ground could not be confirmed.) |
