Here is an Ariel view of PR in 1933 for comparison. There are a few grounds in this article and ours is half way down.

What is interesting is that the Chicken Run, replaced by the Portman (East) Stand in 1971, is there, but that’s it. You can see the cricket pitch boundary of the time. This would have been pre Southern League days. As the article says, the area that the stadium now sits on was wasteland. The cricket pitch was further over and the football pitch was where the approach is now and the edge of the training pitch, i.e. running East-West.

That almost looks as tho drainage trenches (for the pipe work) has been dug in already. I thought the dog down would take ages as they’d not done it since 1970 or something.
Maybe it wasn’t as bad as they first thought

They're using JCBs though, aren't they? I think Evans would probably have used a team of canines to keep the cost down, but not this mob, Shirley?

It's a bit of a ruff job, so they'll have to paws for a break.

There’s a considerable volume of thin attenuation crates stacked up outside so I expect we will soon see the whole pitch area looking very black.

Marcus Evans bought the lot. He's selling tickets if you want to look at it.

Was all just dug up. Would have been too much hassle to scrape off the turf.
