BEWDLEY Town fans will be able to get their first real glimpse at the fruits of the club's labours when Ribbesford Meadows hosts a friendly with Stourport Swifts on Tuesday at 7pm.

New floodlights have been installed at the ground and the new 150-seat stand is beginning to take shape.

Bewdley are waiting for materials from Denmark so that they can construct the new changing room and shower block, while a barrier will be erected around the perimetre of the pitch soon.

Meanwhile, boss Craig Payton has made a new signing as injuries begin to disrupt his pre-season preparations.

Centre half Shaun Wright has signed from Stourbridge with Steve Holt (knee), Gary Middleton (knee) and Keith Elliott nursing problems.

Bewdley lost 4-0 to Gornal in a friendly on Tuesday.
