Huish Park is a football stadium in Yeovil, home ground of Yeovil Town F.C.. The current stadium is in the suburbs of Yeovil, having replaced the old Huish ground in 1990. The old ground had a side-to-side slope (similar to Underhill) and is now a Tesco supermarket, which leads to the usual pre-match jokes about trollies rolling down it.
The ground has two seated stands (the Cowlin Stand and the Yeovil College Stand) and two standing ones (the Westland Terrace and Copse Road Terrace, the latter being the away stand). The record attendance was 17,689 in the FA Cup.
Recently, Huish Park played host to a England U18 match. England were playing the Holland U18 team and comfortably won the tie 4-1 with the presence of Daniel Sturridge and Scott Sinclair.
