SUTTON-IN-ASHFIELD 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 town of Sutton in Ashfield was built around the local Sutton Football Club on Avenue Ground and situated at 1° 14' W 53° 7' N. The market town is situated just 4 miles west of Mansfield and was one of 3 tracks in, or near, the town. See Mansfield Field Mill and Woodhouse for details of the other 2 tracks. |
It was an independently run track which opened in 1931 and remained operational for over 40 years. |
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. |
