NT2774 : Main stand, Meadowbank Stadium

taken 8 years ago, near to Leith, Edinburgh, Scotland

Main stand, Meadowbank Stadium
Main stand, Meadowbank Stadium
Commonwealth Games venue in 1970 and 1986. There has long been talk of developing the site.

When Meadowbank Thistle (Ferranti Thistle) moved to Livingston some of the supporters bought Edinburgh City and moved them into Meadowbank. Now in 2016 they have achieved promotion to the Scottish Football League and this notorious venue is a league ground again. Visit on the second leg of the playoff with Cove Rangers at the end of 2015-16.
