On my way to that glamorous FA Cup First Round tie between Whitehawk and Lincoln City, I couldn't resist popping past Lewes' Dripping Pan ground - a game where I'd seen the Rooks play Kettering Town some six years previously in their season-long stint in the Conference Premier.
It's a ground that I'd very much recommend visiting. Full of charm, character and pretty easy to get to - it's just a five-minute stroll (maximum) from Lewes railway station.
Unfortunately, it looks like the long-suffering fans of Lewes are about to witness another relegation season - thus meaning the boys from the Dripping Pan will almost certainly be plying their trade in the Ryman League Division One (South) in 2016/17.
Here are a few photos to enjoy...

Peering over the fence and into the Dripping Pan. |

Great scenery if you look beyond the stand. |

Outside the main entrance. |

At the other end of the ground. |

Undoubtedly an away day worth doing - if you're sad enough like me. |
 |
I wonder if that van gets moved on matchdays? |

Arguably the best scenery from inside a football ground. |
