Is a football stadium a tenement?

    A tenement is defined as consisting if land wholly or partly covered by a building where such land is secondary and ancillary to the building. A football field isn't a tenement even if there is a portocabin on it to get changed in as the portocabin is secondary and ancillary to the field, rather than the other way round. However, where you are filling a stadium with 50,000 people what takes priority the stadium or the pitch? Dunno.

    I'm going to say the pitch takes priority, without the pitch there's no reason for the stadium to even exist.

    Without the pitch there is no need for the stands and terraces, and no need to cater for 50,000 people.

    I'm inclined to go along with source, but taking the example of Croke Park, it has the museum, conference centre, etc., so it may be case specific and/or it might be an evolving concept, especially in the case of concerts, where the pitch may be irrelevant.
