| Situated in the Burnden area of Bolton - approximately one mile from the centre of the town - the ground served as the spiritual home of the town's football team for 102 years. In its place is now a large ASDA superstore. The Asda store identifies itself with Burnden Park by having a number of extremely large photographs of the former stadium and players, placed high above the chekouts. |

From the White City Stadium, once home of Queens Park Rangers, to Bristol Rovers ground Eastville, each of these grounds is illustrated with an historic shot recording the ground as it once looked. The book provides a detailed caption outlining the history of the ground and its current status.
