SWALEC Stadiumとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Sophia Gardens (Welsh: Gerddi Soffia), currently known as SWALEC Stadium (Welsh: Stadiwm SWALEC) under a naming rights deal, is a cricket stadium on the west bank of the River Taff in Cardiff, 1.6 kilometres (one mile) north of Cardiff Arms Park. It was named after Lady Sophia Rawdon-Hastings. Daughter of the 1st Marquess of Hastings and wife to the 2nd Marquess of Bute, Lady Sophia was concerned to provide open space for recreation in the rapidly expanding city in the late 19th century, in which her husband was heavily involved. The area is currently owned by Cardiff City Council.
