Rhosddu Recreation Ground was a football ground in Wrexham, Wales. It was first mentioned in the local press in September 1879 as the New Recreation Ground, Rhosddu, prior to a game between Civil Service (Wrexham) and Gwersyllt Foresters.[1][2]

It was the home ground of Wrexham between 1881 and 1883.[3] It hosted home games of Wrexham Civil Service, Wrexham Excelsior, Wrexham Albion and Wrexham Victoria to name a few.

It was last used for football in 1885.[4][5][6]
