Lochside Park is a cricket ground in Forfar, in Angus. The first recorded match held on the ground came in 1984 when Scotland B played Durham University.[1]

The ground held its first List A match when Scotland played Lancashire in the 1991 Benson & Hedges Cup. Five further List A matches were played there, all involving Scotland in the Benson & Hedges Cup. The last match of that type to be held there came in the 1998 Benson & Hedges Cup when Derbyshire were the visitors.[2]

The ground is still in use today by Strathmore County Cricket Club.[3]
