Showing 1 of 32

OVER the last three days we have been taking you through the building work at Celtic Park in the first four months of 1995. The photographs we have been showing you of the reconstruction work and before that the demolition of the old Paradise were supplied to us by the former Celtic Director Tom Grant who wanted to get these images out to let the Celtic Supporters see, share and enjoy.

Hopefully we have managed to do that successfully for Tom, who unlike some of the old board, still goes along to Celtic Park for every game.

Today we are going to jump forward to mid May 1996 and the new Paradise is really coming together. You’ll love these photographs!
