 Celtic Park main entrance                   Celtic Index page2

This is how the old Celtic Park entrance used to be like   photo c1965
This new stand was completed in 1929, in the same year as Rangers new stand. 
#Architect Archibald Leitch's façade was composed in red brick with a few decorative touches. 
It was demolished as part of the stadium's redevelopment scheme which was completed in 1988, 
ready to celebrate the club's centenary.

# Glasgow born Archibald Leitch, who trained as a Mechanical Engineer, also designed the grandstand for Rangers and  for over a dozen English clubs including those at Stamford Bridge, Goodison Park, Villa Park, Highbury and Hillsborough.
