| Fildes Cup (1953) |
The Fildes Cup
was originally the property of Mr C H Fildes. It was presented to the
club by his daughter.
It is confusingly engraved "The James Cup". The James Challenge
Cup, presented in 1923 to the club by Whiteman Bros. on behalf of the
James Cycle Company Ltd. was won by C H Fieldes in 1926,1929,1935 and
1943. These dates are engraved on the Fildes Cup, which we presume was
given him by the club to commemorate the four wins and to keep the James
Cup as a perpetual trophy.
