Unsworth C.C. originally approached Club Design to look at grant funding on the old site. During those discussions, the club indicated that relocation would be a more favourable option. Club Design designed the new facility, was instrumental in the sale of the site to a national house builder, acted for the club at public inquiry and managed the construction of the new facilities to completion. The new facility is one of the most attractive in the northwest and the club has hosted county 2nd XI cricket.
