Parking in Molineux Stadium

The Molineux Stadium has been the home of Wolverhampton Wanderers FC since 1889. In that year it hosted the first ever football league game, a 2-0 victory against Notts County. It is named after Benjamin Molineux, who was the original owner of the land upon which the stadium is now located. Wolverhampton Wanders FC, often known as Wolves or The Wanderers, have won four first division titles to date.
