Showing 0 to 5 (Total: 5)Stadium or HomeSince 1983, Eastbourne Borough have played their home games at Priory Lane, Langney, which has an official capacity of 4,151. Prior to this they had played on the playing fields at Princes Park. Many of the facilities on the Priory Lane site, including the clubhouse, were built largely by a handful of volunteers. Just two professionals, a carpet fitter and a plumber, were deployed for the construction of the clubhouse.
In 2006, Priory Lane hosted all three England fixtures of the Non League Four Nations Tournament. The ground also hosted the Sussex Senior Cup final from 2000–2010.
Eastbourne faced the possibility of losing their Priory Lane ground in 2007 due to a rent dispute with the local council. A petition was started to prevent this from occurring.
Between 1983 and 2016, the playing surface at Priory Lane was natural grass. Eastbourne announced that a FieldTurf surface would be installed over the summer of 2016.
