Rosebery Park was a football ground in the Oatlands district of Glasgow, Scotland. It was the home of Shawfield F.C. from 1918 to 1960, before being acquired by Glasgow Corporation as a venue for schools' football matches. The discovery that the site was contaminated led to the ground becoming derelict in the 1990s, and it was subsequently demolished as a result of the M74 motorway extension.〔(M74 scheme leaflet showing route of road ) (large pdf file; ground was located just north of the Polmadie Road junction)〕 ==History== Rosebery Park was named after the former Prime Minister, the 5th Earl of Rosebery. Located on the south-west side of Toryglen Street near Polmadie Road, it was the home of Shawfield Juniors. Pollok also sometimes used the ground in the late 1920s whilst they were without a permanent ground.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pollokfc.com/history/ )〕 Following the demise of Shawfield Juniors, the Glasgow Corporation Education Committee arranged to buy the ground in 1961 in order to provide a venue for the schools' football competitions they organised. After being refurbished at a total cost of £14,000, the ground was reopened for schools' matches in April 1963. Rosebery Park had not hosted football for a number of years as it had become contaminated by Chrome waste from factories.〔(NCE - Stabilising Glasgow ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rosebery Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
