| CAERPHILLY 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 greyhound track in the Welsh town of Caerphilly was located at Virginia Park with grid reference 3° 13' W 51° 34' N. The racing was conducted under the rules of racing and the inaugural meeting was held on 23rd May 1931. |

| Racing finally ceased in 1939 due to the outbreak of War. |

| 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
