Reflections on the Vetch Field to be published in due course

..

The Vetch Field Centre Stand – it stood for nearly 100 years

..

The North Bank – covered terracing for the home fans

..

The West Terrace where I stood on my visit – I recall in their 1st Division days in the 1980’s a second tier with seating. Clearly the H& S people had condemned it leading to a ‘decapitation’.

..

The East Stand. It covered only half of the end as residents in the street behind refused permission for it to extend it the full width.
