    It's named after Edna Hammarskjod, who was a famous Tea Lady in the area.

    6. Harold Phipps
  • I'll take a punt on No. 6 ... Gavin Peacock?

    By the way, as a North East Hertfordshire resident, the vicinity of Harlow is well-known to me. OK, it is in Essex, but it's just across the border. The ground was known as the Harlow Sportscentre and it is situated on Hammarskjold Road ... named after Dag Hammarskjold, former UN Secretary as I recall.

    Harlow FC now play a fair way from the old ground. They built a dry ski slope near the old one, and houses now.

    For those of you who have never visited Harlow .... don't.
  • Gavin Peacock is correct as is the reason for the name of Harlow's old ground.

    My nephew and nieces, who grew up in Bishops Stortford use "a bit Harlow" as an insult ; - )
  • 5. Newcastle United (first FA Premier League game)
