Can see the new stadium from our house, it’s really starting to take shape. This last three weeks it seems to have sprung up at a rapid rate.

Some good pics of Clarence Street in the ' Yesterday once more ' feature on the Knights twitter feed , brought back some good memories. You could smell the embrocation filtering up from the dressing rooms in the main stand and on more than one occasion I witnessed a touch judge tripping over outstretched legs in the dug outs the pitch being so tight to the stand .?

And a couple more, the first of the view looking across to the west stand, which had really shot up in recent weeks, and the second of the back of the east stand at night.  It looks impressive.

Question. Was it Clarence Street or Wigginton Road or either?

The ground was at the junction of Clarence Street, Wigginton Road and Haxby Road. The Postal address of the secretary's office was Wiggington Road, the Oval Ball club was Haxby Road, the ground was always known locally as Clarence Street. although technically it should have been Bootham Stray. Hope that clarifies.

Thanks for the clarity :no: I'm from Hull and we always knew it as Wigginton Road. I can't recall anyone calling it Clarence Street.

Most York fans called it Clarence Street, I always found it odd when the ground wasn't even on Clarence St.

Radio reporters in those days always dubbed  the ground as Wigginton Rd , maybe why outsiders thought the same.
