Ebbsfleet plan stadium move

Ebbsfleet plan

Ebbsfleet United have announced plans to move from their Stonebridge Road home for a £40m 8,000 capacity waterfront stadium.

Northfleet Harbourside Development Company has been created to deliver the scheme to transform a currently under-utilised area in Northfleet.

The club released a statement and outlined plans with Chief Executive Officer Damian Irvine saying:

“Today is a truly significant day in our club’s great history and for the people and communities of Northfleet and Gravesend. The outcome has been the result of many months of hard work and collaboration with Gravesham Borough Council, our development partners and team, and the project’s investors.

“We set about conceiving a plan and solution that would see our football ground developed to a leading standard that was feasible financially within a wider development, and which also provided regeneration of services and contributed to an overall significant uplift to our local community and Borough, reflecting the council’s own regeneration strategy and legacy plan for future generations. It’s a proud and exciting day to receive planning approval from GBC that will be the catalyst for such substantial investment into Gravesham Borough and its communities.”
