Trowbridge Town FC: Work due to start to help promotion bid

Work is due to start on the grounds of a town's historic football club to help its fight towards promotion, its chairman has said.

Trowbridge Town FC, in Wiltshire, has raised thousands of pounds to bring its Woodmarsh pitch up to the standard needed to move to the next step of the non-league football pyramid.

The club used to be Wiltshire's top non-league football team before it disbanded in 1997 but it now plays in the county's senior league.

"This will lift the whole club and help the progression of young players into the adult team," said club chairman Andrew Meaden.
