EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image captured by Dougie Allward on July 2, 2015, the historic Williams Stand at Ashton Gate Stadium in Bristol begins its transformation as demolition of the old roof commences. The iconic stand, a remnant of the past, makes way for the modernization and expansion of the stadium as part of an ambitious redevelopment plan. As the sky above the stadium turns a brilliant shade of orange and purple, the cranes and heavy machinery stand ready to dismantle the old Williams Stand piece by piece. The once proud roof, which had sheltered generations of football fans, now lies in ruins as progress marches on. The scene is a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the ever-evolving nature of sports venues. Ashton Gate Stadium, home to Bristol City Football Club and Bristol Rugby Club, has undergone significant changes in recent years. The redevelopment project, which includes the construction of a new 9,000-seat South Stand and a 750-seat Dolman Stand, aims to increase the capacity of the stadium to over 27,000. These improvements will not only enhance the fan experience but also position Ashton Gate as a leading sports and events venue in the Sky Bet Championship and beyond. The demolition of the Williams Stand marks the beginning of a new chapter in the storied history of Ashton Gate Stadium. As the old gives way to the new, fans and visitors alike look forward to experiencing the modernized facilities and enjoying the excitement of live sports events in this iconic venue.
