Aston Villa's £100m Villa Park redevelopment continues to gather pace, with the latest footage highlighting further structural progress on the North Stand.
However, a notable change has also emerged elsewhere at the stadium, with the club's previous crest removed from the Trinity Road Stand.
Aston Villa remove old crest from Trinity Road Stand
This latest update from SG Explores shows continued progress on the North Stand expansion, which is intended to take Villa Park's capacity beyond 50,000 ahead of Euro 2028.
A major addition to the site is a huge Ainscough crawler crane, capable of lifting up to 700 tonnes, which will assist with moving steel components for the new structure.
A temporary orange support framework has also been installed between the Doug Ellis Stand and North Stand, providing stability while the permanent steel and concrete structure is developed.
Elsewhere, concrete lift shafts are continuing to rise, with floor levels mapped out and foundations at both ends of the stand now filled with concrete. Work is also underway on an additional supporting pillar.
The existing North Stand has been stripped of its remaining external cladding, while a blue safety barrier has been installed to protect workers following the removal of the roof structure.
Away from the main construction site, footage shows that Villa's old crest has been removed from the Trinity Road Stand signage.
New stadium generators near the Holte End are also approaching completion, with their red brick exterior and claret doors designed to complement the architecture of the historic stand.
FGG says: Villa Park redevelopment brings changes across the stadium
The arrival of the enormous crawler crane represents another significant step in the North Stand project, with the permanent structure continuing to develop.
However, the removal of the old crest from the Trinity Road Stand is an interesting detail, showing how the redevelopment is bringing wider changes to Villa Park beyond the main construction area.
With the club targeting completion before the 2027-28 season, the coming months should bring further visible progress as Villa prepare for an expanded stadium and the prospect of hosting Euro 2028 matches.
