History

A team called Lowerhouse played on a field near the former Griffin Hotel on Rossendale Road between 1855 and 1861. When it was dissolved, three new teams were founded. However in 1863, the three teams merged again to re-form Lowerhouse Cricket Club. For many years they were still known as the Garibaldians, after one of the teams started in 1862. When in 1874, the club employed Gibson Price as the professional, he also worked as the groundsman. By 1890, the club's finances had improved to a point that two professionals were employed. The membership rose from 93 in 1882, to 570 in 1915.[5]
