Grandstands at Minith Field
This was to be the place that the spectators would sit to watch the events, but for the moment it was vacant, hollow underneath and draped with rich velvet material. The spectator would reach their seats a metre above the bottom floor space by virtue of steps at each end.
Underneath the stage was a hollow box of heavy wooden timbers perhaps 15 metres long by a metre high. Struts every half metre preserved its integrity and strength, it needed a great deal of strength because to a man and woman the toffs were mostly rather plump. Gaps in the floor timbers allowed cool air to rise up from the ground. This was a place for socializing and waiting during the other games, and to watch the events on Minith Field and the stage area to the north of the grandstands. Seats were free, however, seating was on a first come, first serve basis.
