Dates1839 – 1883

The event ran from 1839 until 1883. The trophy which was awarded during the duration of the event is now used by a different regatta known as the Henley Town and Visitors Regatta. It is awarded for the Regatta’s highest-ranking fours event but today has no connection to the Henley Royal Regatta.[2]
