Notes
Brockville Park was a football stadium which was the home of the Falkirk F.C. for most of the club’s existence. It was situated roughly a quarter of a mile from Falkirk town centre and was regarded as one of the most intimate and intimidating venues in Scotland to watch football in.
The main stand was situated on (roughly) the West of the pitch and was mostly for home supporters and directors, with a small part towards the North end allocated to away fans. The Cooperage Lane terracing was on the South of the pitch and was for home supporters. The Watson Street terracing was on the North of the pitch and was for away fans. Part of the Watson street end was closed in latter years as it failed to gain a safety certificate. The Hope Street end was divided into home and away fans and housed the famous Brockville “choir”.
Brockville Park was demolished in 2003 as it had remained largely unchanged for decades, and was considered unsafe to host matches in the Scottish Premier League due to its largely terraced spectator areas. It has since been replaced with a Morrison’s supermarket. An old turnstile is on display next to the supermarket’s car park.
