NEWMARKET 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 Suffolk racehorse town of Newmarket, still blessed with two glorious racetracks, and at one time having a Steeplechase course as well, also had a greyhound track just after the Second World War. The track was built around the perimeter of the Towns Football ground on Cricket Field Road and situated at 0° 24' E 52° 14' N. |
It was run independently and operated for just one year in 1947. |
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. |
