Plymouth Albion (2003- ) |
The Brickfields is a sports stadium and multi-sport complex in Devonport, Plymouth, England. It is run by EveryoneActive on behalf of Plymouth City Council, and is the home ground of Rugby Union team Plymouth Albion of the National League 1, who moved there in 2003, after leaving their old ground at Beacon Park. The highest crowd was 6871, for a match against local rivals Exeter Chiefs in October 2008.

Albion have two marquee tents next to the East and South stands that they hire out as a venue for receptions.
Since 1915, the site has been a recreation ground. Now it is run by Everyone Active and is home to a gym complex, which is built into the back of the West stand. The rest of complex includes:
