Ernest Tyldesley - Death and Legacy

Death and Legacy

Ernest Tyldesley died in 1962 in Wales, where he had lived for several years.

Ernest's elder brother JT named the Tyldesley family home in Worsley, Lancashire "Aigburth" to commemorate his younger brother's Lancashire debut at the Liverpool ground where Lancashire County Cricket Club occasionally play their matches. The home still stands today and a plaque telling the story has been erected by the Worsley Heritage Walks.

His great-great-nephew is the Yorkshire and England cricketer Michael Vaughan.
