ABERDEEN (REGENTS 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 Scottish city of Aberdeen had 2 greyhound tracks in the past, the second of which was an official track at Holborn and situated at 2° 7' W 57° 7' N. It opened on 7th June 1933, but before that an independent track, located at Regent Park and situated at 2° 5' W 57° 9' N had opened on 25th June 1932. It was located on School Road and built on ground which had formerly been the Seaton Racecourse. |
It operated as a flapping track throughout its history, eventually closing in October 1936. |
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. |
