Howard's Field, Marsh Lane, Knottingley, WF11 9DE (View on Google Map)

This is a club, which means that the bar may be only open to members.

Knottingley Rugby Union Football Club's splendid new clubhouse replaces a concrete sectional building located on Howards Field near site of one of Knottingley's ropewalks.

Historic Interest

Originally known as Pighill (Pickhill) Garth, this land lay adjacent to the Crown land alongside the Aire upon which shipbuilding was undertaken. It is therefore unsurprising that a ropewalk should be established close by the shipyard. The first known proprietor is Robert Standidge but the site is more popularly identified with the subsequent owner, John Howard, who took over in 1844, hence Howard’s Field. Sometime after the death of John Howard, the ropewalk was abandoned and the site cleared.
