caption_attribution_description: English: This is a picture of Olive Grove Stadium in Sheffield, England.
context_page_description: Olive Grove was Sheffield Wednesday F.C.'s first permanent football ground, home to the club for just over a decade at the end of the 19th century. It was located on the site of what is now Sheffield City Council's Olive Grove Depot, near Queens Road in the centre of Sheffield.
  In November 2009 it was announced that the world's oldest football club, Sheffield F.C., plan to return to its Sheffield roots with an 'iconic' 10,000 capacity stadium.
context_section_description: Olive Grove was situated near Bramall Lane; just south of the city centre next to the railway tracks on Queens Road, on land leased from the Duke of Norfolk.  However, it was in no fit state to host football matches and over £5,000 had to be spent developing the site.  Even then, the ground still lacked basic facilities; early on the players even had to get changed at a local pub before matches.
