NORWICH BOUNDARY PARK 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 City of Norwich has been blessed with a number of tracks throughout the years, notably at Boundary Park and Spowston Road. The Boundary Park track opened on 15th October 1932 and operated as an NGRC track.  A track at the Firs had already opened earlier that year on 30th July. By 1939 there were a further two track operating at Thorpe, opening on 17th June 1933, and the City Stadium which first held racing on 25th July 1939.

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
