Notes:
Garries Park is basically just a large public playing field. The pitch has posts around its perimeter that on match days are used to rope off the park. There is a small, all wooden 'cabin' structure in one corner, which was built in 1998. This holds changing rooms, the referees room and an equipment store, as well as providing a small amount of cover at the front. A set of training lights are attached to the front of this. There are benches around the pitch that provide seating for around 20.

Fleet Star joined the South of Scotland League in 2004 after switching from the Stewartry Amateurs.
