Ferrycarrig Park has been the home of League of Ireland side Wexford Football Club since joining the league in 2007. The building works for the new stadium and facilities, at Newcastle, Crossabeg, have been ongoing since 2003. Currently spectator facilities consist of a clubhouse with viewing area and a 609 seater temporary stand. The plans for a permanent stand to seat over 2,000 people are in place. Building work is in progress on a fully equipped gym on the site.
An application for retention of developments at the Wexford football complex was rejected by Wexford Planners in October 2007.[1] This decision threatens the future development of the club and has slowed work on the complex considerably. The decision is in the appeals process at present.
Access to the stadium is signposted from the N11. The signs along the roadside are small and care should be taken when approaching the junctions along the N11. The roads leading to the entrance to the ground are narrow and winding and caution is required. There is no direct access from the N11.
