Reflections on New Meadow to be published in due course

..

The New Meadow – aerial view, with the Main Stand at the top. Looks like lots of car parking, but on my trips it never seemed to be available, necessitating a route march to the nearest on-street parking

..

The North End for visitors, with a substantial police control box keeping a beady eye on possible recalcitrants!

..

The West Stand

..

The South Stand for the home supporters. All seated when I went, but now with ‘rail seating’ at the rear to create the first safe standing area in English football
