Baseball Ground - Derby County

Record Attendance: 41,826 v Tottenham Hotspur 1969
Ground Opened in 1894 - the club moved to Pride Park in 1997
The Ground has now been demolished and is to be re-developed as a housing estate.
As a tribute all the names of the new roads are to be named in connection with the football club. So you may one day live in Archie Gemmill Way, or Baseball Close.
