There was already a greyhound track at the New Cross Stadium before the arrival of speedway, and the speedway track was built on the inside of that track to make the stadium dual purpose. Greyhound racing continued well after speedway had drawn up the shutters, but the final meeting took place on 3rd April 1969.
