This sports oval, now host to many school sports days and track and cycle events, started out as a muddy vlei (wetland) known in the late 1800s as "Russell Road Dam". It is right next to the lands which belonged to the London Missionary Society, where bubonic plague broke out in 1902. The vlei was drained in 1899 and a cycle track constructed, but it must have fallen into disrepair, because in 191
