The Biddle cup was won 13-5 by Cambridge.
NB, Trinity has several fields. Our one is on Grantchester road, not Grange Road.
Grantchester Road is a left turn from Barton Road, as you go out of
Cambridge, opposite Wolfson College.
The Trinity ground is opposite the Cambridge Rugby Club's ground.
The main entrance to the ground is the first turning on
the left as you go down Grantchester Road, straight after the houses end.
Those coming by car from outside Cambridge are STRONGLY encouraged
to approach from the M11, junction 12, along Barton Road (A603)
so as to avoid congestion, which can be bad. Grantchester Road is then
a right turn, opposite Wolfson College.
A second entrance to the ground, at Kings Road, will NOT be open.
