Rowing Trophy Makes A Homecoming After  Years

25 October

William O’Chee writes:

As readers will know, HTBS sometimes highlights items of rowing memorabilia that come up for auction. One recent piece was identified as being of particular historical significance. The item in question was a pewter presentation tankard given in to the winners of the Brasenose Scratch Fours, and constitutes a relic of a portion of Oxford rowing that is largely unrecorded by rowing historians.

A consortium of past members of the College purchased the item, which has now made a welcome homecoming over years after it was first presented.

In most cases, the college boat clubs did not keep lists of their members, and only rarely did they record the names of those competing in college regattas. The surviving trophies from these races, therefore, provide important historical and social information about college rowing in the 19th century.

Throughout this period, Brasenose College was arguably the most successful of the Oxford Colleges, claiming the Head of the River in Torpids 22 times in the 62 years it was contested between and They were also Head of the River in Eights 20 times between and
