At one point in its history, Walthamstow Stadium was such a popular dog-racing track that 50 million visitors would pass through its gates in one year. But those days are gone. The stadium closed its doors for the last time in summer 2008.So now there is only one greyhound racing track in London (Wimbledon) whereas once there were 33.
Now a new exhibition of photographs of the last days of Walthamstow Stadium, entitled "Going to the Dogs" is being held at Vestry House Museum in London. All images were taken by local photographer Katherine Green
