In March 2009 planning permission was granted to demolish Cefn's old stadium, Plaskynaston Lane, and replace it with a Tesco supermarket.[2] Delays to the beginning of construction put the project back by 12 months and the club moved into the new stadium in August 2010.[3]


Facilities


The new complex at Rhosymedre includes a 512-seat stand, a club house and a television gantry. As it is sited in a disused quarry, one side of the stadium features a sheer rock wall. In 2016, a 3G pitch was installed at the stadium.[4]


Attendances


The record attendance at the stadium was set in June 2017 as 1,854 attended a friendly against Wrexham.[5] The record attendance for a regular season league game at The Rock is 662 for a game against TNS. A Europa League play off game against Cardiff Met in May 2018 attracted a crowd of 779 supporters.[6]
