- EWOOD PARK, THE HOME OF BLACKBURN ROVERS FC FROM 1890
THE HISTORY.
Ewood Park opened in 1882 as a multi-sports ground. Blackburn Rovers first only occasionally used the ground, but started using it regularly from 1890.
Ewood Park developed quickly in the early 20th century when new stands were built and the capacity of the stadium quickly rose. It recorded its highest capacity on the 2nd of March 1929 when 62,522 visitors saw Blackburn play Bolton in an FA Cup match.
Few changes were made in the following decades, apart from the installation of floodlights and cover for the Blackburn End terrace.
In 1984, the Nuttal Street Stand got rebuilt after it had burned down in a fire. A few years later the wooden Riverside Stand got demolished and replaced by a new single-tiered stand.
After Jack Walker had taken over the Rovers in 1991, he announced a large redevelopment plan to turn Ewood Park into a modern arena. In early 1994, two new stands at the short ends opened and the redevelopment was completed a few months later with the opening of the Jack Walker Stand.

A fine club and fellow founder members. Hope to see you back in the top division soon
I miss Jack Walker...thank you good sir
Mighty ewood!
There's no hill behind the Nuttall Street stand. That will have been the Riverside.
Great old school football ground. First game in 1978 on the riverside terrace.
Really well put together. I remember during the 1960s when you could walk from the Blackburn End to the Darwen End via the Riverside Terrace. At halftime the supporters of each team would change ends.
Ewood Park and our late benefactor Jack Walker, go together like fish n chips. or Bill & Ben. What a pair of football legends,
I watched almost every game from the riverside . My first game was against Plymouth in the 74/75 season . Me and my dad E03Y128 and 129 we had those seats for I am going to say 14 or 15 years
Was there 5-2..... 1-2 down at ht.
Enjoyed that trip down memory lane, great stuff.
Nice vid,
good to see another one added to your run
Awful music though, (I found the volume buttons lol)
given a like
It's not the Nuttall Street stand, but the original Riverside. It's open fields behind the stand running up to the Manchester railway line. "Nuttall" is an advert printed on the roof. If this was the Nuttall Street stand, there would be houses/factories/pubs behind it on level ground. Otherwise - enjoyable.
correct.. The Ewood Mills over shadowed the ground on nuttall street. Now all gone. The Darwen end had a covered reservoir at one time to power the Fernhurst mill.
The 1907 pic wasn't the new Nuttall Street stand. It was the original Riverside stand before it was re-bulit a few years later.
Great vid but unfortunately you’ve spelt DARWEN as DARWIN which is incorrect.
Coops1964 who cares? Even the Dariners can’t spell it right lol...
Its Darreners! @@Dude0000
@@coops1964 I used the phonetic method.
I like the music
Fantastic transformation shame that our current owners have destroyed one great mans legacy.
Ewood Railway they are building it back. Yes they destroyed it under bad advising. But now they seem to be investing and doing something about it
Leo Jefferson I have to disagree, sorry
The walker family have also a lot of blame to take...sold out to the first fucking idiots who showed them a bit of cash.....uncle jack will be spinning in his grave
@@ewoodrailway sadly you are right, Venkys takeover could not have gone worse and we are 12 years into it. Nobody is benefiting from this. No one.
@@DS-wz8sg will they qualify for next season??
Happy memories
Early to mid 90"s Ewood Park was a giant building 👷♂️ site Lol .Nice ground .Just one stand that needs developing. Did the owners run out of money 💰?
After watching the Dortmund vs Spurs game last night I was thinking one of your videos on the Dortmund stadium would be great.
Amazing video bro
Can you do a video about Estadio Benito Villamarin transformation
I think it will be a good movie
You missed our most important parts of history,winning FA Cups and The Premier League...
Make a video on Estadio Santiago Bernabéu.😍
There’s only one jack walker
Can you do history on dalymount park stadium croke park and aviva stadium in Dublin
Did anyone else notice at 02:51 the "National Front" racist graffiti on the wall outside the Blackburn End turnstiles? Gives an indication of so many things - Very interesting................
Have you visited Blackburn recently ?
Maybe it was a Notts Forest fan, he stopped spraying wall when he realised it was wrong turnstile 🤔😁
