Paton Field

The playing surface is natural grass. The facility has been known as Paton Field since Sir Alfred Paton gifted Thurstaston Hill to the National Trust in 1928, with the condition that the Rugby Club would have a pitch 'in perpetuity'. The original pavilion was built in 1928, and members levelled the pitch in the 1930s.

It is the home of Caldy Rugby Football Club, which was founded in 1924 as Old Caldeians Rugby Club. The club plays in the RFU Championship, which is the second tier of English rugby.

Drainage repairs were carried out in 2025, and the pitch is maintained by volunteers. No football clubs have used the ground.
