Holbeach have played at Carters Park since their establishment. The site was bequeathed to the town in the mid-1920s by a man named Carter. However, both were later demolished. A new seated stand was opened in 2005. The ground currently has a capacity of 4,000, of which 200 is seated and 450 covered. The ground's record attendance of 4,094 was set on 28 September 1955 for an FA Cup first qualifying round replay against local rivals Wisbech Town. ==Honours==
