I am probably preaching to the converted, but for those who do not know the above-named site has a couple of nice features on the old West Ham and New Cross stadiums.

This may be not be the Link you want but this website does carry lots of information about the London tracks.

For your interest, I have been advised by another Poster to always query things through Google for answers - have you tried that in your search for the Link you request?

I took part in a BBC London radio broadcast and phone in a few years ago with the author of the book and the man behind the website, Paul Talling. He talked about lost sports stadiums in general and I spoke about the speedway tracks. I think there is a thread on it somewhere on the Forum.

This Link - an update to my previous Post - has more detailed information on both West Ham and New Cross. Information is also available via Google if you key in the names of both venues. The Link I refer to is at

I listened to that on the internet from my home in Wiltshire..had my text read out. Good memories of The Frying Pan and The Den.
