Balls 22:30 - Jan 17 with 2487 viewsjudd

I was at a presentation this morning and one speaker stated that the cricket ball was invented in Rochdale. I have tried googling it but it ain't providing me with owt to back the statement up. Any of you cricket lovers or local historians shed any further light on this?


Ta in advance

News to me too. Would like to think there's something to it, but it sounds similar to the myth about Hitler and the town hall's stained glass.

I think Hitler wanted to save the stained glass windows from any rejected cricket balls headed their way.
