This photograph is not of 1937, as the racecourse was still going then. I presume it dates roughly at the same time as the previous one. William Morgan	Willocolt	Tuesday 4th of March 2014 12:13:38 PM
As I understand it, the racecourse is out of shot to the bottom left - see EAW023693 from the opposite direction. The "Beehive" terminal building shown opened in 1936, while the racecourse was still in use, so I think the date is probably spot-on.	Tony D	Tuesday 4th of March 2014 12:13:38 PM
