The site extends to approximately 1.60 acres, and is surrounded by the fences of surrounding residential properties to the west, the palisade fencing of the Spalding Police station to part of the east boundary, but is otherwise open to the remainder of the east boundary to the Westlode Street car park, and open to the Castle Sports Complex to the north boundary, where the site is also opposite a small private estate of bungalows (Forge Close). There are some trees and vegetation to the eastern boundaries.
The site lies close to the junction of Pinchbeck Road with Kings Road and is nearby to residential properties and the Macarthy and Stone 'Pool Close' retirement complex.
