First used as a cricket ground in 1867, it is also used for Australian rules football, rugby league, rugby union and soccer.

In 1935, the timber fence was replaced by a high brick wall and concrete terrace seating 1,200 people was built. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
