On 27 February 2017, demolition started on the Nene Park site. On 12 May 2017, the stadium had been completely demolished. Gallery The site in 2012, when Kettering Town F.C. were tenants. Average crowd sizes Stands The South Stand included the Diamond Centre and hospitality suites. Away fans, if travelling in small numbers, were situated in a block of this stand. There were 1,224 seats. The North Stand was home to the press box and more hospitality suites. It held 976 people (all seated). After Kettering Town's demotion to the Southern League in 2012 it was decided to close this stand permanently due to lack of demand for the stand's capacity. The Airwair Stand was the biggest stand in the stadium. Holding 2,372 fans, it was situated behind one of the goals. During Rushden and Diamonds' tenancy it was split between away fans and home fans. After the club's relegation to the Conference National it was closed in order to cut costs, only being used when a large number of away fans needed to be accommodated. That stayed the same during the first season of Kettering Town's tenancy. However, after their demotion to the Southern League it was permanently closed. The Dale Roberts Terrace (Formerly the Peter De Banke Terrace), was named after the late former Rushden & Diamonds goalkeeper and fan favourite Dale Roberts, who died aged 24 in December 2010. It was opened in late 1994. Holding 1,800 fans, it was an all-standing covered terrace. Within two years of Max Griggs taking control of the club, the terrace was constructed, which replaced the temporary dressing rooms and offices.
