KILKEE 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 Irish town of Kilkee was situated at 9° 39' W 52° 40' N and first opened for business on 2nd July 1936. It was a short-lived existence administered by the Kilkee Greyhound Racing Company, but within 4 years it closed.

The land on which the track stood, and the assets of the Company were put up for sale in 1942, as shown by the newspaper advert below.

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
