The Police Officer in the photo is none other than P.c. 5738 Billy Fairhurst, who was based at Pemberton Police station with myself for many years.
Thanks for that Dave, I recognise him now - looking unusually smart!
THe 'Hen Pen' on the right of the tunnel was where we used to climb onto the top of the wall and slap the players on their backs as they came out. Boston, Ashton, McTigue, great memories
Great, great pictures. Have you any more at all? Thanks.
Hi Andy, yes there are some more within the next few days hopefully.
Steve Ella on this photo and Greg Dowling on the other one. Pint of Boddies in Sams Bar for the first one to quote their 'nicknames'
Zip-zip and The Wall.

Correct Dave! see you in Sams fort game tommorrow neet!
Ignore Jem - last time he went t'bar he paid with his ration book!
loving this picture ! never really see many photos of the father in his rugby days.
Ian Potter, the best ever tackler IMHO and of many other people too.
