Celtic Park.

Belter TC.

:worthy:

Cracking view of the iron rails that went up around the ground for the 1898 international between Scotland and England.
The rails came down in 1914 for the war effort but i've seen pics at CP which show iron rails after that so mibbes not all of the iron rails were taken down in 1914.

The cycle track is still there so its before 1913.

The Janefield enclosure (Jungle side), with the two arches went up in 1907 after the original Janefield Stand burned down in 1904.
(Between these years it was used as an uncovered terrace due to a wrangle with the cooncil who were claiming back a few feet along the length of Janefield St from Celtic, this held back the construction of a new stand and would have limited its capacity, so a roofed terrace was built instead).
This wrangle along with the fire that burned down the Janefield stand in 1904 meant that Celtic Park finally lost the battle with the new Hampden, (built in 1903) to host the big Scotland v England games and 1904 was our last.
Willie Maley described the fire as suspicious.
Hmmmmmmm.

So the date of the pic is between 1907 and 1913.

The other very interesting thing about the pic is the huge retaining wall that was built in the south east corner, i'd need to check the date but i think it was around 1912 off the top of my head.

Check again how small the Rangers end terracing on the far side is. When the cement cycling track was removed in 1913 it added 25,000 to the capacity of the ground.
