Quote ="Steve Fox"The rugby club was formed in the autumn of 1875 as it happens. And the F&A cricket club folded in that off-season so they never had to share the ground as such.
First ground was behind where 'Spoons is now.
Then to a site where Library now stands, then Peelhouse (just north of Millfield) then Widnes CC on Lowerhouse (behind the north stand of the current rugby stadium)
Then back to Peelhouse/Millfield, then back to Lowerhouse on the far side of Widnes CC (Squires Avenue area). The first couple of NU games were played there in 1895 and the current site was christened with a game against Liversedge, 12 October 1895 and so is the third site the club has used on Lowerhouse Lane (or the fourth if you count the 3rd XV pitch on the Stewards Ave side of the road that was used briefly in the 1880s).
