Cathkin Park,
Third Lanark

| Cathkin Park,
the former home of Third Lanark, Glasgow and former Scottish Cup Final &
Scotland International venue, saw its last game in 1967, shortly before Third
Lanark were wound up in the courts. Glasgow's park department took over Cathkin park and developed it into a
open access municipal park. Large sections of the ground are still preserved
today,
including banks of terracing, barriers and parts of the perimeter wall. Third Lanark
may have gone, but at least the ground now benefits the community and for the
football grounds enthusiast it is a great place to visit. |

Terrace

| The ground was
originally Queens Park Ground and staged its first league game in 1884. The
ground then was called Hampden Park and Queens Park played there until they
moved to the present site of Hampden Park in 1903. When Third Lanark took over
the ground in 1903, they renamed it Cathkin Park.
Whilst known as Hampden Park in staged a number of Scottish Cup Finals and even
Scotland played England there in 1894.
