Facilities

The stadium has few facilities, however the Hat-Trix sports bar lies at one end of the park and two terraced stands are situated at either side of the pitch. The facility also includes an impressive astroturf facility, mainly used to host five-a-side football. The stadium's record attendance was set when 2,200 people watched Cumbernauld play Pollok in 1983.

Kirkintilloch Rob Roy

From 2014 to 2024, fellow West of Scotland League club Kirkintilloch Rob Roy used the stadium as their home venue while they searched for new home to replace the historic Adamslie Park, where they played for almost 100 years.

From the start of the 24/25 season, Kirky vacated Guy's Meadow and moved into the Kirkintilloch Community Sports Complex.{{cite web|url=https://www.robroy.org.uk/news/1002/club-announcement|title=Club Announcement
