    Cheers IR4Ever, that was my junior and primary school at the bottom of the picture, and the little bit below the school is where they built the flats that I grew up in. Sadly both the school and the flats are now gone.

    Bloody hell...look at that! And that was where your flat was Ninesy. Must have been hard work getting to a game on Saturdays. Sad when history is wiped out like that but I guess things change with time.

    The buildings to the left of South Africa Road where the Estate is now were left over from the Empire exhibition in the early 1900's......

    Also if I remember correctly I read somewhere that the old original Ellerslie Road stand was taken from the old Park Royal ground and re-built at Loftus Road
