MR Roy Cavanagh, Secretary of the Bolton Association, has been in touch regarding the old picture of Astley Bridge cricketers which appeared on this page last week.
We had established that the club was displaying the Association's Cross Cup and that the picture was probably taken in 1925 or 1927. Roy points out the banner reading "Champions" and says the club won the Association championship in 1925. That seems to confirm that the picture was taken that year.
