Darlaston currently play in the West Midlands (Regional) League - Premier Division after gaining promotion last season.
The ground hasn't changed a bit since my last visit over 25 years ago, apart from a lick of paint!
This picture shows the floodlights with the stand in the background.
There is a massive slope from the clubhouse to the bottom end of the ground. The ground has an old wooden stand, floodlights, a social club and three dugouts.
Things have improved dramatically since the 2005/06 season when Darlaston Town finished bottom of the West Midlands League - Division One with just 16 points.
These pictures show the admission prices on the left and the social club and changing rooms on the right, with the catholic church in the background.
Two views of Darlaston's stand.
The photograph on the right clearly shows the extent of the slope on the pitch.
