For a bit of mild nostalgia for anyone who used to use the cut-through from Tudor Road to Priory Road, Google Maps Street View still shows the view down Priory Road with the back of the North Bank and end of the East Stand. But it only works if you drop your pin at the very northern end of the dead end that turns in to Albion Way. As soon as you move south it changes into the current view with the block of flats in place of the stands

On a different note I don’t understand why the club would have sold the steam train nameplate that was above the turnstiles of the West Stand terrace turnstiles, in the auction of Boleyn Ground memorabilia. Should have kept this.

Used that way sometimes if slurping in the working mans club stopping off en route at the hole in the wall for a Mad dog roll.HamstasParadise wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 10:01 pm For a bit of mild nostalgia for anyone who used to use the cut-through from Tudor Road to Priory Road, Google Maps Street View still shows the view down Priory Road with the back of the North Bank and end of the East Stand.

You can drop your pin on Priory road and then go to street view and change the date all the way back to 2008 using the slider.HamstasParadise wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 10:01 pm For a bit of mild nostalgia for anyone who used to use the cut-through from Tudor Road to Priory Road, Google Maps Street View still shows the view down Priory Road with the back of the North Bank and end of the East Stand.

That hole in the wall was a regular stop off for me as well mate. Sausage and Bacon in a french stick with onions and a decent dollop of Mr Colman's finest. Bloody lovely. Can't remember which player it was named after though. If I remember right all the grub had a player's name given to it.Dwayne Pipes wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 9:34 amUsed that way sometimes if slurping in the working mans club stopping off en route at the hole in the wall for a Mad dog roll.HamstasParadise wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 10:01 pm For a bit of mild nostalgia for anyone who used to use the cut-through from Tudor Road to Priory Road, Google Maps Street View still shows the view down Priory Road with the back of the North Bank and end of the East Stand.
