EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to a momentous occasion in Welsh rugby history. The image captures Cliff Jones, the esteemed President of the Welsh Rugby Union, as he unveils a plaque commemorating the birthplace of the Union at the Castle Hotel in Neath on March 12th, 1881. The significance of this event cannot be overstated. It marks a century since the establishment of one of Wales' most beloved and revered sporting institutions. As Mr. Jones stands proudly before an eager crowd, his presence exudes both reverence for tradition and excitement for what lies ahead. Surrounded by fellow rugby enthusiasts and dignitaries alike, Mr. Jones pays homage to those who laid the foundation for Welsh rugby's enduring legacy. The plaque itself serves as a tangible reminder of how far this sport has come over its first hundred years. The photograph was taken on March 14th, 1981 - capturing not only a milestone celebration but also reflecting upon an era when rugby held immense cultural importance within Wales. Its publication in Western Mail and Echo further solidifies its place in history. This remarkable snapshot encapsulates not just a single moment frozen in time but also represents decades of passion, dedication, and camaraderie that have made Welsh rugby such an integral part of national identity.
