The address may be Myreside Street, but it appears that the street has yet to be extended past the northern boundary of the stadium. |

Carntyne, around the time of opening. Built on the site of a former trotting track, it staged its first greyhound meeting during the month of this photograph. The following year a speedway track was constructed inside the dog circuit but did not prosper. The dogs survived until 1972. |
