| Location: | From High Street: At the northern end of High Street travel westwards along Cathedral Street (A803), taking 3rd right turn up Hanover Street and 2nd left after this onto Cowcaddens Road. Stay on this road as it becomes Garscube Road, following signs for Maryhill. Once in Maryhill itself, look out for a health centre on the right hand side, and upon passing it, turn right at the traffic lights into Lochburn Road. The football ground is an almost immediate right off Lochburn Road, at the top of a slight hill. |

| Notes: | A compact ground that is devilishly hidden at the top of a hill off Lochburn Road, a red and black gate is the main entrance. Inside the ground is a health club (entry on non-matchdays is via the turnstiles!) and shop selling the usual club merchandise and fantastic pies. The pitch itself is sunk six feet below the terracing - a somewhat bizarre site. A covered terrace runs down one side of the ground and is bisected by the players tunnel. Behind the goal opposite to the turnstiles is a section of multicoloured open bucket seating, built in time for season 1998-99. The health club is strangely positioned at the halfway line but its overhanging roof provides extra cover for anyone caught in a heavy downpour on the wrong side of the pitch. Lochburn Park is also one of the few grounds in the juniors to have floodlights. |
