On the name derivation: 'American hawthorn' can refer to any of about 200 species of Crataegus native to North America; the one cited before ("C. coccinea") is an invalid name. Anyone have any info on the species grown at the stadium? - MPF 09:49, 21 May 2004 (UTC)
More on the name derivation- according to the Tony Matthews book "Albion- A complete record of West Bromwich Albion" the ground was merely a field full of common hawthorn bushes, rather than a nursery where it was sold. I have edited to show thisThePennyDrops 16:02, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
