It is currently in occasional use by Bangor University football and rugby clubs, as well as for practical lectures by the University's 'Normal Site' campus, which is home to the sports science and education faculties. The main pitch overlooks the Menai Strait, with stunning views in both directions along the coast. Work started on building a new football stadium on the site on August 1st 2011. It is thought Bangor City FC will play their last game at their current Farrar Road stadium on January 2nd 2011 before moving to Nantporth shortly afterwards.
