An exhibition celebrating the history of Darlington's football stadium has proved a huge success.

Hundreds of Quaker fans have been wallowing in nostalgia, in the first week of the Farewell to Feethams exhibition at the town's Arts Centre.

Around 4,000 people visited the collection of new and archive photographs in the opening days, exceeding expectations of the Darlington Supporters' Trust.

Steve Duffy from the organising committee of the Trust said: "It's seems to have created a real buzz.

"We were confident people would be interested in the show, but the sheer numbers have surprised and delighted all those involved.

"More importantly, we're getting a good reaction from people who've seen the show, it's provoking a lot of memories."
