	Internet Football Grounds Guide - Craven Cottage, Fulham FC
		Overlooking the ground from one corner, between the Johnny Haynes Stand and Putney End, is the unique Pavilion building, which many fans refer to as 'the Cottage' (although this is technically incorrect as the original cottage after which the ground is named, was demolished many years ago).
		An unusual feature is that the teams enter the field from one corner of the ground, by the Cottage and then make their way up onto the pitch as it is raised.
		I have been previously to Craven Cottage on a number of occasions and on a nice summer day, this is one of my favourite grounds.
