BUNWELL 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 tiny South Norfolk village of Bunwell had a greyhound track on the Turnpike Road and first opened for racing in 1935. The independently run track was situated at 1° 7' E 52° 29' N and raced on 3 nights each week, Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. |
The track closed in 1940 and never reopened after the War had ended. The site on which the former track once stood is now a recreation ground. |
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. |
