Name history

    Rugby league history

    Preston Park's two matches on file, both in 1904, were English county championship fixtures for Cheshire (against Durham & Northumberland, then Cumberland) rather than club matches, suggesting the ground was used as a one-off or occasional venue for representative rugby league in the sport's early professional era rather than a settled club home.
