Bastion Gardens Football Ground in Prestatyn opened in 1969 as a replacement for Prestatyn AFC's former ground at the rear of the Central Beach Club (Grid Ref: SJ0607883496) which was sold off in the 1960s for housing development. The latter site is now Bastion Close. Remaining very much an open field until the 1990s, Bastion Road has developed significantly in the last twenty years. In the mid-1990s, the club erected its first covered shelter - this was, in fact, several bus shelters taken from the newly renovated central bus station. A modern stand was not erected until the summer of 2008 along with a press box and other features required for promotion to the Welsh Premier League. In addition to the covering for spectators, a bar was installed in 1995.
