The Stevenage Road Stand (known as the Johnny Haynes Stand), along one side of the pitch and built in 1905, has had its terracing replaced with seats. Opposite this is the fairly modern but small Riverside Stand.
The two old open terraces behind each goal have been replaced in recent years by all-seater stands, but with pillars (strange for a new stand these days).
Away fans will be allocated just under half of the Putney End - behind the goal - shared with 'neutral fans'. The initial quota is 3,000 but the whole end can be given if needed.
Posts obstruct the view from row DD and above but there is lots of leg room. Food outlets are located outside the stand and not enclosed so it can be chilly queueing up in winter. On a nice day, out on the left side you can enjoy views of the River Thames with a pint.
