On 19 March 2020, an announcement was made to suspend racing because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the following two years the majority of trainers moved their greyhounds to other venues as the track became derelict. During October 2022, the stadium's owner Billy King died ending the likelihood of it ever reopening. (en)
