Scotland’s largest sports stadium has changed a lot over the years, so we’ve taken a look back in our photo archives to see the changes carried out at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh.
The 67,000-capacity home of Scottish rugby has seen memorable moments in games involving Scotland and Edinburgh Rugby since it opened in 1925, with other events including concerts by the likes of The Rolling Stones and Oasis taking place there.
