Name history

    Rugby league history

    Clifton Lane is fundamentally a rugby union venue, the long-standing home of Rotherham Titans since the late 1930s, but hosted two Sheffield Eagles National League Cup home fixtures in 2005 and 2006. Sheffield Eagles' regular home ground through this period was Don Valley Stadium, not Clifton Lane, so these two matches appear to have been one-off or occasional-use arrangements rather than a settled rugby league tenancy; the specific reason for the switch could not be confirmed.
