Found a book in my parents house, Marking the opening of the stadium in 1976, original plan was to build on land on model farm rd but planning and objections put a stop to that,
With the help of cork corporation and munster agricultural society work started on the present site in April 74, 1m was original estimate but went to 1.3m,
Stadium finished in less than two years ,
Money raised by selling some of gaa owned land in Kilbarry and some of the land on model farm rd , Also a property sold 36 sraid mcdonncha?
