Didn't Shaw Lane start off as a works team and the owner continued ploughing loads of money in the club. Hope they move to the new Belle Vue development.

Up the Trin

That big house in front of the jip-ho's is called The Old Clubhouse isn't it still? It comes up for sale every now and then.

don't know if it's still standing but it's called Golf House.

There'll be no room for sporting facilities along Neil Fox Way when they've finished with the housing developments down there Eastern. Have you seen the extent of the excavations taking place now? All along the road you can see where they've already allowed provision for new entrance roads into new housing projects.
Yes, there was a golf course down there and te solitary building that stands there is the old club house. There was also a pub there called The Jolly Sailor: so called because the Barnsley canal ran past it.

Up to today Redscat, I had only been on the road once having not had the need to.

I went up there on a bike ride earlier, and yes, I did notice.

It was more a thought than anything, thinking location, and that area had previously been used for sport and leisure, that it may have been a more viable option than either Newmarket or Belle Vue

Agree 100% Eastern. The old power station site would have been absolutely perfect with plenty of car park space and a stones throw from our spiritual home!!!
