That is also a great picture of part of the North Stand at Hillsborough. Built in 1961 in preparation for the 66 World Cup it was officially the first ever cantilever stand to run the full length of the pitch and is often referred to by Owls fans as simply "The Cantilever". Even more astonishing is that aside from the floodlights now being on the top of the front of the stand, that stand is still exactly the same today nearly 60 years later and while it is in need of a little maintenance in areas it is still a fantastic looking stand!!!
