Norton Canes Stadium
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Norton Canes Stadium was a former greyhound racing track situated in Norton Canes, near Cannock in Staffordshire.[1]
Beginnings
Racing began under the N.G.R.C permit scheme in 1975. Races were run over the distances of 265m, 440m, 617m, 792m & 969m.
The track enjoyed a popular spell when John Preece took over as a promoter in 1987, the attendances went up and it attracted top trainer Geoff DeMulder for a while. However the track closed in the early nineties after the promoter pulled out.
Derelict
As of 2012 the site was still derelict awaiting planning permission for a housing development.
