Background
History
The Brewery Field was purchased by the Bridgend Amateur Athletic Club shortly after World War I for £9,000. The club erected a grandstand and pavilion and created several sports pitches for tennis, hockey, cricket and football. In 1927, the ground was then sold to the Welsh Greyhound Racing Association for £7,000, who wished to conduct greyhound racing on site. However, soon after, the greyhound syndicate went into liquidation and the assets became the property of the bank. The bank sold it to Bridgend Rugby Club, who had acquired a loan from the Welsh Rugby Union to buy it.
