CHESTER 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 at Chester was situated on the Sealnad Road at 2° 54' W 53° 11' N where racing was organised by an independent team outside of NGRC rules.

The track closed in 1986 and a retail park, known as The Greyhound Retail Park, now covers the land on which the old track once stood.

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
