DESCRIPTION |
Details (Known As) |
The George Giffen, Sir Edwin Smith & Mostyn Evan Grandstands, Adelaide Oval |
Registered Name |
Sir Edwin Smith Stand, George Griffin Stand, Mostyn Evan Stand |
Significance |
The George Giffen (1882, 1889, 1929), Sir Edwin Smith (1929) and Mostyn Evan (1929) Grandstands are directly associated with the history and development of the Adelaide Oval and are the main viewing structures on South Australia's principal sporting venue. The grandstands commemorate three notable South Australian identities who were associated with the development of sport in this State, either as sportsmen or through their involvement with the SA Cricket Association and the establishment of the Adelaide Oval itself. The scale, detailing and alterations to the grandstands reflect the continual growth and changes required to satisfy the demands of sports spectators over a period of more than a century.
