A Walk through Hillsborough Stadium

[RichardB]

It is difficult to imagine that when Sheffield Wednesday bought a plot of land at High Bridge, Owlerton in 1899, that the area where the ground now stands was just meadowland. Serious doubts were expressed at the time that the club was moving too far away from the Heeley area of Sheffield, where the majority of its fans resided, but the club's forefathers would be proved correct in their decision.

Good stuff Richard.

Here's a question for you - in which way is Hillsborough not 'in' Hillsborough? ;-)
