Unusual Matches
In the late 70's a game of Rugby was being played on Top Field, which concealed the old World War II air raid shelters, long since closed up. During the game a maul was formed and the roof of the air raid shelter collapsed leading to the pile of players falling through the hole. After that the field was not declared playable until the shelters had been filled and reinforced.
