The End of the Barn Park Entrance

If, like me, you were brought up in Peverell, the Barn Park turnstiles and steps will hold very special memories.
 That's all they are now.
The top row photos were taken (1) yesterday, (2) this morning and (3) a few minutes later. 
The lower row shows what's left. Nothing but debris, including gates.
Most startling of all, have a look at the June 17th page to remember how it was.

The Devonport End, R I P

Thanks to Stuart Caskey for these two sad images.

The Excavation Begins

We've seen the demolition, now the effort seems to have turned to excavation. The stands will be built at pitch level, so there's a lot of earth to shift. The top two pictures show a big hole in the 'Sleepers', and below, from inside and out, a breakthrough at the Barn Park End.

Pitch Drainage

Nothing to do with Barr and the redevelopment - new drainage pipes will hopefully avoid a repeat of last season's problems.

Thanks to the Club for giving access to Home Park, and to Steve Hill for his help.
