The Tallest Of Them all

The Tallest Of Them all

Description: A classic shot here of one of the old Diamond Light floodlights at Elland Road. Three of the four floodlights were erected at Elland Road in 1974 at a whopping 260 feet tall. The floodlight in the pic situated at the South East corner of the stadium was the last floodlight to be erected this one was put up in 1978 four years later then the previous three. Each floodlight housed 55 lamps.
Unfortunately the floodlights were brought down shortly after the East Stand was built.

Thanks to Quiffy for this great pic.
