St James' Park's East Stand is smaller than the other three

A football stadium stand has been added to a list of notable buildings considered to be currently "at risk".

The East Stand at Newcastle United's St James' Park was included on The 20th Century Society's list of landmarks vulnerable to neglect, dereliction or demolition, with worries the oldest surviving part of the site could be subject to future redevelopment.

It said the "finely-detailed stand" with "brutalist credentials" was a "striking urban set-piece" of 19th and 20th century architecture.
