Home of Newcastle United Football Club.It is a 52,387 capacity all-seater football stadium. The four sides of the ground are known as the Gallowgate end (officially the Newcastle Brown Ale Stand), the Leazes end (officially the Sir John Hall Stand), the Milburn Stand (after 1950s legend Jackie Milburn) and the East Stand.

It was first used by Newcastle United in 1891 after the unification of Newcastle East End and Newcastle West End, although football had been played there since 1880.

The unsymmetric appearance is due to the club's wish to remain in the city centre and develop the existing stadium after permission for a brand new development in Leazes Park (to the above left) with re-landscaping of the existing ground was refused.
