Shamrock Field was a Gaelic Athletic Association ground in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Originally dating from 1838, it had a capacity of approximately 4,000.[1] During World War II, the sports ground was used as a training camp and billet for members of the Newfoundland Militia.[2][3] It was also sometimes used as the 'national stadium' of Canada GAA.
In the early 21st century, it was proposed to demolish Shamrock Field to make way for a Sobeys food retail outlet. While there were initial objections from some local residents,[4] a supermarket was ultimately developed on the site.[5][6][7]
