| BANBURY 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 Oxfordshire town of Banbury had a greyhound track some 5 miles to the south of the town. The track was situated in the villages of Barford St Michael and Barford St John on the south bank of the River Swere with reference 1° 21' W 51° 59' N and first held races in 1951. |

| The meeting was short-lived and the track closed in 1953. |

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. |
