KILRUSH 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 small Irish coastal town of Kilrush in County Clare had a greyhound track which was situated at 9° 29' W 52° 38' N and which first opened for racing in 1940.

It operated independently for over 10 years before finally closing its gates in 1950.

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
