Brunswick Street Oval
The Brunswick Street Oval (officially known as the W. T. Peterson Community Oval) is an Australian rules football and cricket ground located within Edinburgh Gardens in the suburb of Fitzroy North, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It is managed by the City of Yarra. Established in 1883 as the Fitzroy Cricket Ground, the venue served as the principal home of the Fitzroy Football Club until the end of 1966 (with the training and administrative base remaining until 1970). The club returned to playing at the venue when it entered the Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) in 2009. Additionally, the oval also served as the main ground for the Fitzroy Cricket Club from 1872 until 1986. The grandstand, completed in 1888, was added to the Victorian Heritage Register on 27 June 1990 in recognition of its architectural and historical significance.
