Long awaited upgrades to the floodlights have been installed at The County Ground, offering vast improvements in not only visibility, but also energy efficiency and environmental impact.<\/strong><\/p>\n Kim Prestwood, owner of Sports Lighting, a Devon-based, family-run company which has supported grassroots sport in the South West for decades, explained the upgrades.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThese are significant enhancements on fittings previously in place at The County Ground.
