barneys barnstormers 0 Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) As you are all aware over the past decades several of our tracks have closed for various reasons . canterbury, crayford all london clubs to name just a few. I would be very much interested to know all the names of the clubs that have shut and what is standing in the stadiums place now. i will start with: BOSTON (new hammond beck rd) tesco and b&q in its place now.

Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 Posted January 2, 2009 west ham :- flats Not really flats...: mainly houses... Harringay is now a Sainsbury's as indeed is Crayford... Though a utilitarian tiny dog track occupies part of the former site of the Crayford & Bexleyheath Stadium... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobC 664 Posted January 2, 2009 Where is California then Bob? And can anyone pinpoint High Beech on the multimap? California is near Wokingham,off Nine Mile Drive. Look closely,and you can make out the remains of the track,with a little of the centre green still there.Sadly,no birds eye for this one. http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=motherwel...and,%20RG40%201 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobC 664 Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) High Beach. Although on Multimap they spell it High Beech! The outline of the arena is very visible,just look for the horseshoe shaped trees. http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=high+beac...ful_information Edited to add Trelawny Speedway.Have they actually excavated the site? http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=nanpean&a...and,%20PL26%207 Edited January 2, 2009 by BobC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phlipphlopp 3,913 Posted January 2, 2009 Exeter,Housing. http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=motherwel...land,%20EX4%203 Click on the 'birds eye' and see the stadium being demolished. Sorry Nevs and co. Not yet BobC , just a pile of rubble at the mo, and not likely to build under the present climate anytime soon , and thats without the planning application probs encountered with all proposals being rejected so far. We could have had several more years at the County ground methinks. I am surprised jimmy nilsen didnt start the demolition process tho , he hated the track BIG TIME !!!
