The Lancashire County Rugby Team was at the forefront of these developments, competing in major tournaments such as the 1895 and 1896 competitions. Their success on the field was a testament to their skill, teamwork, and dedication. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when rugby was a major cultural phenomenon and sportsmen were celebrated as heroes.
