New Meadow, also known as The Croud Meadow for sponsorship purposes, is a stadium situated on the southern outskirts of Shrewsbury, Shropshire, between the districts of Meole Brace and Sutton Farm, and close to the A5. It serves the home ground of English football club Shrewsbury Town.
It was completed in the summer of 2007, in time for the 2007–08 English football season, and was built to replace Gay Meadow, Shrewsbury Town's home stadium since 1910.
