NORTHUMBERLAND RUGBY UNION MATCH RESULTS 1885 - 1890
The venues of most county matches are recorded after 1884. Home matches after November 1885 were played at what was known as the County Ground. This ground was behind Windsor Terrace, Brandling Village and is not to be confused with the later County Ground in Gosforth. Reports seem to describe the former variously as the County Ground; Jesmond or Newcastle.

Jesmond
|
"Only an exhibition match was played at Jesmond. Though the ground was coverd in straw, the snow and ice made competitive play impossible, so the officials met and for the sake of the 2,000 spectators played the game and agreed that it should be called a draw for the records."
