 In April 1934 , following the moving of the Richard Johnson , Clapham and Morris Ltd firm to Trafford Park , the playing grounds were offered to the Parks Committee of the Manchester Corporation for £ 2 @,@ 400 . At the time , the ground was described as being fenced all round with iron railings , containing bowling greens , a number of tennis courts and a cricket pitch , together with two well @-@ built pavilions . For many years the land was used for community events including football and funfairs . A cycle speedway track was built during the 1980s . In 2005 , a 2 @.@ 4 m green powder coated weld mesh fence with gates was erected at the perimeter of the fields . Moston Juniors Football Club secured a lease for the site in 2007 , with a view to future development .
