Aggborough Stadium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aggborough Stadium is the ground of Kidderminster Harriers FC. The club website describes it as "a compact but smart ground that has undergone major building work over the past fifteen years". It has a capacity of approximately 6,238, of which 3,140 can be seated. The record attendance at the ground is 9,155, when the Harriers entertained Hereford United in the FA Cup in 1948.
The ground was the first in the country to host a floodlit FA Cup match, when on September 14 1955 Harriers played Brierley Hill Alliance in a preliminary round replay, which Harriers won 4-2.
The passionate Kidderminster fans have a love of the stadium for it holds some very special memories for fans of the Harriers. Goals by stars such as Paul 'Ocker' Davies, Kim Casey, the Wassall brothers, Lee Hughes, Bo Henriksen and Ian Foster have won many memorable matches at Aggborough over the years. No-one present at the time will forget John Williams giving Kidderminster the lead in an FA Cup tie at the stadium vs Wolverhampton Wanderers in January 2004.
