The location of the track was behind the Foresters Arms public house (now Casa Paolo) on the B4553.[2] The track was opened sometime in the late 1960s. Race day was Saturday evening at 6.30pm and the circumference of the track was 440 yards. It was a simple all-grass track with a 'MacWhirter' hare system and race distances of 375, 525 and 600 yards.[3] The track closed during the 1970s.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/411103/186915/12/100954|title=OS Plan 1970|publisher=old-maps.co.uk}} {{English greyhound tracks}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://w.greyhoundderby.com/Swindon%20Common%20Platt%20Greyhound%20Stadium.html|title=SWINDON (COMMON PLATT) GREYHOUND STADIUM|publisher=Greyhound Derby.com}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Furby|first=R|title=Independent Greyhound Racing|page =61|year=1968|publisher=New Dominion House}} 4. ^{{cite book|last=Barnes|first=Julia|title=Daily Mirror Greyhound Fact File|page =413|year=1988|publisher=Ringpress Books|isbn=0-948955-15-5}} 2 : Defunct greyhound racing venues in the United Kingdom|Defunct sports venues in Wiltshire |
