About Roots Hall

Roots Hall is a football stadium located in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, England. The stadium is the home ground of the National League team Southend United. With a capacity of 12,392, however currently restricted to 11,409, Roots Hall is the largest football stadium in Essex. During the early 21st century there was lengthy discussion of a new 22,000-seat stadium at Fossetts Farm, but a change of club ownership in 2024 ended prospects of that development, with the new Southend United owners instead planning a redevelopment of Roots Hall, part-funded by housing developments at Fossetts Farm.
