Truro City Football Club, Cornwall’s largest football club, has signed a deal enabling them to relocate their stadium to make room for a retail park on their existing ground. The location of the new 10,000-capacity stadium and training ground has still to be finalised although plans for the site include a 4G artificial pitch, conference and banqueting facilities, catering areas with a 120-bedroom hotel alongside. The new stadium will be shared by Truro City FC and Cornish Pirates Rugby Union Club.

The two possible sites for the new stadium are at Threemilestone or an area at Nansavallam Farm near Arch Hill. If approved, construction could begin in 2016.
