Stonebridge Road is a multi-purpose stadium in Northfleet, Gravesend, Kent, England, also known as Kuflink Stadium for sponsorship reasons.[1] It is primarily used for football matches. Stonebridge Road was constructed in 1905, and was initially the home of Northfleet FC, which merged with Gravesend FC in 1946.[2] It is currently the home ground of Ebbsfleet United (formerly Gravesend & Northfleet FC).[3] Thus, Stonebridge Road has been the home of Ebbsfleet and its predecessor football clubs for over 100 years.

Although one of the Fleet's local rivals, from 2000 to 2006 Dartford had a groundsharing agreement with Ebbsfleet United to use Stonebridge Road as its home.[4] Gillingham used Stonebridge Road briefly for home matches in 1961.[5]
