Club in court over ground dispute

Dorking FC play in the Combined Counties League Premier Division

Representatives of a non-league football club have appeared in court over a claim from the local council to repossess its home ground.

Mole Valley District Council and the current owners of Dorking FC, in Surrey, have disagreed over maintenance of the facilities at Meadowbank.

After two days in court, a judge at Guildford County Court adjourned the case for a judgement on 22 April.

The council is the landlord for Meadowbank, in Mill Lane, Dorking.

Dorking FC, who are in the Combined Counties League Premier Division, have played at Meadowbank since the 1950s.
