Green light for Truro City 3G pitch

Truro City Football Club’s plans to build a full-sized, community 3G pitch adjacent to its stadium can now move forward, after Cornwall Council accepted Football Foundation funding worth £746,057.

It is the latest phase in the Truro Sports Hub project, which forms part of the wider Langarth Garden Village development. Planning consent for the pitch was granted in February 2024, with key grounds work already in place ready for the pitch to be laid. Truro City FC hopes that the pitch will be completed in time for the start of the 2026-27 football season.

“After eight years of lobbying for a football pitch in the local area, I’m delighted at today’s decision which is great news for Threemilestone AFC and other local grassroots clubs,” said Dulcie Tudor, Independent Cornwall Councillor for Threemilestone.
