Kuflink Stadium

Stonebridge Road

Stonebridge Road — also known as Kuflink Stadium for sponsorship purposes — is a sports stadium in Northfleet, Kent and the home ground of Ebbsfleet United Football Club.

The stadium has a maximum capacity of 5,011 spectators.

Access to the Kuflink Stadium is straightforward by road, rail or bus. Motorists leave the M25 at Junction 2, join the A2 toward Canterbury and exit at Northfleet/Gravesend West, following Thamesway past Ebbsfleet International to Stonebridge Road; from Gravesend town centre the one-way system leads via London Road, The Hill and Northfleet High Street to the same point. Northfleet and Ebbsfleet International stations are each a short walk away, and Arriva’s 480 service links Gravesend with stops on Northfleet High Street and Thamesway. Match-day parking is scarce in nearby streets, so supporters are directed to secure Car Park C at Ebbsfleet International (£3, cash only), while on-site bays are limited to pre-arranged permit or blue-badge holders; cycle racks are available inside the ground.

League and cup fixtures are normally segregated. Visiting fans enter through Swanscombe End turnstiles to an uncovered terrace that can hold more than 2,000, with priority seats set aside in the Old Stand for elderly, disabled or pregnant spectators. Refreshment outlets at the away end serve hot food, draught beer, prosecco and soft drinks from 1 pm, and pre-ordered programmes are collected at the club shop before entry. Bag searches may be conducted and weapons, narcotics, fireworks, flares and smoke bombs are strictly forbidden.

Inside, the 2016-built Main Stand provides more than 1,000 seats along with reception, offices, dressing rooms, hospitality suites, lifts, accessible toilets and a tea kiosk. The covered Plough End behind one goal seats about 500 home supporters, while the adjacent uncovered Geeks’ Corner terrace accommodates roughly 200. Opposite the Main Stand, the 600-capacity wooden Old Stand dating from 1914 hosts home spectators and away priority seating, with a flat wheelchair area in front and the Supporters’ Trust facilities behind. The Swanscombe End terrace is divided between fan bases as required, and food vans, pop-up bars and a German street-food hut operate at various points around the concourse.
