VillaJ100 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Historians of Villa, Me and my dad were having a discussion about the old villa ground, before they moved to Villa Park in about 1900. We know it was located in Perry Barr on Wellington Rd, but does anyone know where it actually was? Is One Stop built on top of it? And is there any evidence today of the ground at the location like a plaque etc? Thanks!
KHV Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Wellington Road football ground is now houses I believe. The site was in between Leslie Road and Wilmore Road
hansardtony Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 The site was the old greyhound stadium which was demolished to make way for the shopping centre.

VillaJ100 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Thanks guys! Should be a little plaque there though, being as we probably had most of our success there! Edited January 14, 2016 by VillaJ100
