| BRAINTREE (COGGESHALL) GREYHOUND STADIUM
This site is not an official website for the track shown here and is neither approved or endorsed by the stadium. I am indebted to Richard English for helping to construct this page. |
The Essex town of Braintree had 3 greyhound tracks in the past, the first of which was situated on Coggeshall Road with reference 0° 33' E 51° 52' N. It was an independently run flapping track which held its inaugural meeting on Saturday 6th September 1930. |
   |
| The meeting continued for almost 2 years before closing in 1932. |

I am grateful to Jon Seddon for the following link to a map showing the whereabouts of the old track |
| This section gives a comprehensive picture of
the badges produced by the track throughout the ages, but only provides the briefest of
glimpses of its history. For those wishing to undertake further research we can recommend
a visit to http://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwgreyhoundd-21 where further reading can be undertaken. |
