The Fall of the Wall

The boundary wall at the rear of the Devonport End has become a bit of a Home Park landmark. It was quite a striking construction when it was built in the 1960s to replace a green-painted corrugated iron fence (which I vaguely remember!). But the addition of barbed wire on top, badly rusting over the years, flaking paintwork and many attempts at graffiti, have left it looking the worse for wear in recent times.

The first picture (of an excavated Devonport End) was taken four days ago when the wall was still intact. The rest were taken today.

Thanks to the Club for giving access to Home Park.
