Hallamshire Harriers Allford cup

Recommended Posts

Hello

 

I wonder if anyone can shed any light on the Allford cup which was donated by my g-grandfather, George Frederick Allford in the early 1900's to be awarded by the Hallamshire Harriers. I have found a little about it but don't know what happened to it. I contacted the HHarriers and received no reply but wonder if any of you on here can help ? Any information gratefully received

 

Many thanks

Star Green Un, 9 October 1909.

Hallamshire's New Cup.

Mr George Allford the proprieter of the Royal George Hotel, Cricket Road,

has presented the champions with a cup. Like the good sportsman that

he is, he attached no conditions whatever to the gift, but left it in the

hands of the club, who have decided to put it up for an eight-miles

scaled handicap, to be run on Boxing Day from Mr Allfords.
