Parkside is a football ground in Shotts, Scotland. It was the home ground of Dykehead during their time in the Scottish Football League (SFL) between 1923 and 1926.
Parkside was a basic ground, with the pavilion in the western corner of the pitch being its only structure. The probable record attendance of 4,000 was set for a Scottish Cup first round replay against Albion Rovers on 31 January 1920. [1]
Dykehead were elected into the new Third Division of the SFL in 1923, and the first SFL match at Parkside was played on 25 August 1923, a 3–1 win over Galston. However, the Third Division was disbanded at the end of the 1925–26 season, with the final SFL match at the ground being played on 10 April 1926, a 2–2 draw with Solway Star. [1]
Dykhead folded in 1928, and the ground was left to the YMCA in perpetuity; the site remains in use as a football pitch.
