1. Title: Ewood Park, Blackburn - A Timeless Home of Football and Community Ewood Park, located in Blackburn, has been the proud home of Blackburn Rovers Football Club since its inception in 1890. This aerial photograph, taken in 1995, offers a unique and breathtaking perspective of this historic sports venue. The image, part of the extensive Aerofilms Collection held by Historic England Archive, showcases the urban landscape of Ewood Park and its surrounding areas. The photograph reveals the intricate layout of the football ground, with its lush green pitch at the center, surrounded by terraces and seating areas. The terraces, a testament to the passion and dedication of the local community, are arranged in a semi-circular fashion, creating an amphitheater-like atmosphere. The terraces are flanked by the Ewood Stand, which houses the main entrance, and the Darwen End, named after the nearby town of Darwen. The urban landscape surrounding Ewood Park is also evident in the photograph. The image reveals a mix of residential and industrial areas, with rows of terraced houses, factories, and warehouses visible in the background. The River Darwen, which flows through Blackburn, can be seen meandering through the landscape, adding to the picturesque scene. Ewood Park is more than just a football ground; it is a symbol of community and tradition in Blackburn. The photograph captures the essence of this iconic venue, providing a glimpse into its rich history and the vibrant spirit of the town.
