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.
If you’d like to read more on the history of Maine Road, take a look at Farewell To Maine Road, which can be downloaded from this page:
