Gigg Lane

Gigg Lane is an all-seater football stadium in Bury, Lancashire, England. It was built for Bury F.C. in 1885, and has been their home ever since. The first match to be played at Gigg Lane was a friendly between Bury and Wigan Athletic on 12 September, 1885, which Bury won 4–3. The stadium has had permanent floodlights since 1953, although the first floodlit match to be played there took place in 1889, before the Football League had authorised the use of floodlights in competitive matches.
