Field Mill guide

Field Mill, currently known as One Call Stadium for sponsorship reasons, is a football ground in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England, and the home of Mansfield Town Football Club. It is the oldest ground in the Football League, hosting football since 1861, although some reports date it back as far as 1850. The stadium has a capacity of 10,000 when fully open, but due to safety restrictions, it currently holds 9,186.

The stadium once hosted a pop concert under the previous owner, Keith Haslam, but the sale included a clause preventing use for non-sports events until 2032.

Before Mansfield Town, ‘Field Mill’ was originally the name of a large, stone-built, water-powered textile-mill with its own mill pond. The mill was located directly across the road from the present ground, being one of several situated along the River Maun water course supplied from a nearby reservoir. The mill was demolished in 1925.

The stadium has undergone a number of redevelopments in recent years, including the construction of a new stand in the west end in 2001, which was named after former manager Ian Greaves. The North Stand and Quarry Lane End were also rebuilt in the early 2000s.

Field Mill is a popular venue for football matches and is often praised for its atmosphere. The stadium has also been used for a number of other events, including concerts, rugby league matches and greyhound racing.

In 2018, Mansfield Town announced a new naming rights deal with One Call Insurance, which saw the stadium renamed One Call Stadium. The deal is worth £1 million per year and runs for a period of five years.

One Call Stadium is a well-maintained stadium that is well-equipped to host a variety of events. It is a popular venue for football matches and is sure to continue to be used for many years to come.
