Craven Park
August 1931 saw Barrow move to its current home ground, Craven Park, named after Commander Charles Craven ( Chairman of Vickers Armstrong Ltd), who was the major driving force behind the funding and building of the new Ground. The land was purchased for the sum of £2,500, assisted in no small way by the Mayor, Alderman John Whinnerah.
