^ You are very well informed, MLM. I think you have given the little-known Archibald Leitch the honour of being the first architect to get his own personal name check in this thread!

Cheers mate. Yeah it's definitely one of the better ones from the pre-war era imo, has the four individual stands that the old grounds have but the roofing is all level and well done, other grounds don't have that. Probably a bit lucky with it's location in that there is loads of room around it, grounds like Goodison are not really possible to just expand which is a shame.
I too would like to see posts from our European forumistas, I think Zaqarbal might be good in this thread. Hope he sees it.
Loving all these posts and pics
