EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white aerial photograph captures the nostalgic scene of Eastville Stadium in Bristol, as it stood in April 1967, just over three decades before its eventual demolition in 1998. Built in 1897, Eastville Stadium was a cherished part of the local community and served as the home ground for Bristol Rovers Football Club for over a century. The grandstands, terraces, and pitch are visible in this image, with the surrounding trees and green spaces adding to the idyllic setting. The roar of the crowds and the clash of footballs against the turf are long gone, but this photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of football in Bristol. Eastville Stadium was more than just a sports venue; it was a place where people came together to enjoy recreational activities, build community connections, and create cherished memories. As the years passed, the stadium began to show its age, and the decision was made to demolish it and build a new facility. The loss of Eastville Stadium was deeply felt by the local community, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the past. Today, the site is home to a housing estate, but the memories of the stadium and the excitement of the games played there continue to live on in the hearts and minds of those who experienced them. This photograph, taken from an aerial perspective, provides a unique view of Eastville Stadium in its final years. It is a testament to the enduring power of sport and the importance of preserving the history of our communities. Copyright © Historic England Archive.
