Maine Road 100 – Day 31 Answer

Yesterday I asked you to name the year this aerial view was taken. I gave the following clues:

  • The North Stand had yet to be built
  • The central part of the Main Stand roof is the original one
  • The original floodlights are in the corners
  • The Welcome To Maine Road sign has not yet been erected

The answer was 1961. Here’s a view from ten years later to compare with the above.
