Probably because the Luton and Dunstable Hospital, which was a fair distance away from the track, wasn't built until 1939. Looks like they assumed there were going to be noise problems and complained accordingly, even though the track was there first. I understand that the Luton and Dunstable Hospital replaced The Bute Hospital, which was located on Dunstable Road and opened in 1882. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, you're a hospital historian as well as a speedway historian, eh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
