ILMINSTER 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 south-west Somerset town of Ilminster had a greyhound track situated at 2° 54' W 50° 55' N which opened in 1935. It operated as a flapping track, running races from 450 yards to 530 yards, but had closed its gates within a year of opening. |
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. |
