LANGLEY MILL 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 Derbyshire town of Langley Mill in the Amber Valley, and on the border of Nottinghamshire, first witnessed racing on 19th April 1930 on their Victory track situated at 1° 19' W 53° 1' N. Racing was run independently with sprints over 330 yards and standard races over 500 yards, but the track closed just one year later in 1931. |
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. |
