Aerial views of Vicarage Road Stadium and Watford during the painting of floodlights in May 1990.
The end of the season gives the opportunity for a host of maintenance jobs to be carried out around a professional football club – including some that require a head for heights.
Eleven days after Watford had ended the 1989/90 season with a 3-1 victory over Hull City at Vicarage Road to secure a 15th-place finish in the old Division Two, workmen armed with pots, rollers and brushes scaled the floodlight pylons to give them a fresh lick of paint. They were joined by an intrepid Watford Observer photographer and the outcome were these fantastic photos, featuring views of the ground and the surrounding area usually only enjoyed by passing birds.We hope you enjoy seeing these pictures from our archive that were captured on May 16, 1990 when both ends of the ground were still terracing.We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues.
