Exclusive Photos – Main Stand extension completed, Celtic legends train at Barrowfield

This week The Celtic Star has been showing you some incredible and exclusive photographs of the extension to the front of the main stand at Celtic Park which was added during our Centenary season. We have reached the stage where the exterior work has just about been completed but the work continues inside with all the relevant trades involved.

Today we’ll have a look at these exclusive photographs which were given to The Celtic Star a few months ago by the former Celtic Director Tom Grant. Tom gave us several large bags of prints and slides showing various aspects of across several decades at both Celtic Park and Celtic’s training ground at Barrowfield.

All the photos had to be digitalised and that was a process that took around a month’s work to achieve. We’ll continue with the main stand extension today but here’s a wee sample of the Barrowfield photographs which will follow over the next few weeks on The Celtic Star…

How many Celtic legends can you spot in this photograph? This one comes from the Barrlowfield photos within the large collection given to The Celtic Star by Tom Grant and there are plenty more to come in the days and weeks ahead!
