The Shenley Training Centre is the state-of-art training ground of the Premier League club Arsenal FC. Located in Shenley, Hertfordshire, the multi-million pound project opened in 1999. Further upgrades have since been implemented and include an indoor training facility.
In August 2006 an artillery shell was found near the site during development work, leading to the surrounding area being evacuated.
