Craven Cottage Stadium

Craven Cottage Stadium

Craven Cottage is the name of a sports stadium in the Hammersmith and Fulham area that has been the 6.3 acre home ground of the football team Fulham F.C. since 1896. Its capacity has recently been increased to around 26,600 with the highest all-seater Premiership home attendance of 25,380 fans present for the 2-0 victory against Birmingham FC on 03 March 2008 in the Relegation Battle.

It is located next to Bishop's Park on the banks of the River Thames. 'Crave Cottage' was originally a royal hunting lodge and has history dating back over 300 years. The stadium has been used by the Australian national football team for some friendly matches due to a large immigrant population living in England (mainly in London). The Republic of Ireland national football team also played two games at the venue during the construction of the Aviva Stadium.
