A PHOTOGRAPHY exhibition to mark the end of Darlington Football Club's time at its Feethams ground has been transferred.

Farewell to Feethams includes 40 photographs celebrating Darlington Football Club's 120 years at the ground.

The pictures, which were commissioned by Darlington Supporters' Trust, were taken by professional and amateur photographers, as well as fans.

The exhibition has been at Darlington Arts Summers, but yesterday it transferred to Greenfield Community and Arts College, Newton Aycliffe, where it will remain this week.

The exhibition has already been seen by more than 6,000 people and will eventually be housed at the football club's new stadium, in Neasham Road, Darlington.

Geoff Gale, of the Supporters' Trust and a resident of Newton Aycliffe, said: "I am delighted that football fans from outside Darlington will have a chance to view these photos in their own community and arts college.

"We would like to see the project travel to different areas prior to the new stadium opening, so that supporters from throughout the fan-base can have the opportunity to see what has been achieved.

"There are thousands of fans who have their own special memories of Feethams. We couldn't let the opportunity go by without creating a record of that. Apart from the 40 exhibition pictures, there were over 1,200 other photos taken during last season from January to May, which will be retained by the Supporters' Trust as a permanent historical archive for club, fans and community."

Visitors to the exhibition can also buy copies of Farewell to Feethams, a book which celebrates the club's history. Its authors, Ray Simpson and Andrew Wilkinson, were at the exhibition yesterday signing copies of the book.

The exhibition at Greenfield Community and Arts Centre runs until Friday. Opening times are 9am to 9pm, with 5pm closing on Friday evening.
