Ravenhead Drive, where once were riders
Today's modern housing belies the recent past. In the 1950s this was the site of the old Knowle speedway and greyound track. This part was the top bend of the speedway, where riders would slide around towards the far end of the present road. Just beyond were kennels.

At the back of the stands
Ravenhead Drive lies largely across the site of the old Knowle speedway track. Just after the war this site would have been a packed stand, some offices and kennels.

A faceful of gravel
Today this is a quiet suburban neighbourhood with lots of 1960s housing. But if you were stood around here in the 1950s you would be risking a faceful of gravel. At that time, this spot was part of the old Knowle speedway track, and also where the greyhound track joined the west straight.

Starting and finishing at Edgewood Close
This short road is a cul-de-sac in the post-war estate. But a few years prior to the construction, this was the old Knowle Speedway and Greyhound stadium. Although there is no trace now, this spot was around the start and finish line in front of the main stand.
