* HELP NEEDED! SO FAR WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND PHOTOGRAPHS OF BORO'S FORMER LINTHORPE ROAD GROUND HOME SHOWING THE STANDS, PITCH, ACTION ETC*

Lots of people claim to have seen photographs (the only one we have is below) but none ever emerge so we thought we would try one last time and appeal to anyone who might be able to help!

The plan below shows the old Grand Stand (approx 50 yards long) from Middlesbrough FC's Linthorpe Road Ground, later re-erected at Ayresome Park. Adapted from an Archibald Leitch plan in the collections at Teesside Archives.

Please share with any football fans, historians etc who might be able to help.

There used to be a thread on the old board with some old footage of MFC and I'm sure some of that was from the LRG, although might be wrong.

I can't see the thread on there anymore so hopefully admin can help.
 
Don't think so. The very oldest film was from away games and then Ayresome Park.
There have been rumours of a photo before but collectors can keep these things to themselves.

I've seen an action photo of the last league game at Linthorpe Road when we drew 1-1 with Stoke

I agree with you, didn’t it have Tim Williamson on that footage also?
