Griffin Park was a football ground in Brentford in the London Borough of Hounslow, England. It was the home ground of Brentford from its opening in September 1904 to August 2020. The ground is in a predominantly residential area and was known for being the only English league football ground to have a pub on each corner. The ground's name referred to the griffin featured in the logo of Fuller's Brewery, which at one point owned the orchard on which the stadium was built.
