As of 2022, Leitch's original trusses remain at only three stadiums, and Goodison Park is the only stadium to retain complete trusses. This photograph was published on page 47 of 'Engineering Archie: Archibald Leitch - football ground designer' by Simon Inglis. This image was scanned from an undated 35mm transparency.
