Horsham Football Club has begun work on its new stadium at Hop Oast on the outskirts of the town.
The Hornets currently share with Lancing FC at the Sussex County Football Association in Culver Road.
In the last month the site has been cleared, a pond extension has been dug and ballstop netting has been installed in the driving range. The next stage is to lay foundations for the car park and to level the ground for both pitches once the local authority has approved the work carried out so far.
