Can anybody tell me when they played at Eastville. I was taken there as a teenager, so I’m thinking late 50s early 60s? Would appreciate any info.

It was strange, the court was over the other side of the greyhound track on the north stand I believe. I found out the date and posted it on the OS forum before it was closed (and before I was banned) but did not record it. |

Just lost another hour of my life, closest I can get so far is 58 59, but not confident.

Thanks for that, I would have been 13, remember walking to the ground from the 13 arches end, through the ash covered “training pitch”. Sweet Georgia Brown blasting out over the tannoy.
