Gala Fairydean shortlisted finalist Scottish Design Awards 2024
We are delighted that The Gala Fairydean Rovers Spectator Stand has been selected as a finalist in the 2024 Scottish Design Awards - Regeneration category!
The Gala Fairydean Rovers Spectators Stand in the small Scottish Borders town of Galashiels is one of the most exciting pieces of modern architecture in the UK. It opened in 1964 during a period of architectural optimism in Europe in general, at a time when football clubs occasionally dared to build exciting projects. The fact that Gala Fairydean and Gala Rovers are a lower league club made the commissioning of such a daring design even more incredible. The stand was designed by Peter Womersley (1923-93), one of the most renowned and talented post-war architects working in Scotland.
Congratulations to everyone involved on this project.
