Raeburn Place
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The first international rugby union game was played at Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, Scotland, on March 27, 1871 between England and Scotland. It was won by Scotland, though England got revenge at the Kennington Oval, London in the following year.
The playing fields are still used by The Edinburgh Academical Cricket and Football Clubs.
