Above the Roof.

Went out this morning to get the paper, and as the weather was atrocious only went about ten minutes away, and took this view over the town. You can see Brewery Field which is a 8,000 capacity stadium. It is the home ground of the Welsh Principality Premiership rugby union team, Bridgend Ravens.
The ravens moved to Brewery Field in 1920, after their home was acquired for building purposes. The club's first stay at the Brewery Field ended in 1928/29 season when the ground was purchased by Greyhound Racing Syndicate. They returned in 1935 only to go into exile yet again in May 1949, after being evicted after the rugby league team had signed up to take the lease of the ground, but eventually returned in 1957 with the ground in a poor state of repair. Most of the outside fencing was laid to the ground, and, essential services were wrecked and needed to be completely re- installed. Other repairs and building work took place over several months, in time for the 1957/8 season and the club has been there ever since.

A biker friend of J's called around for a coffee and a catch up, and i have read the papers. Looking forward to watching, Call the Midwife and The Three Musketeers tonight. Best viewed LARGE.
