Southport may not be the number one coastal resort, but Lancashire's visits to the coast always produce something interesting and exciting. Over the years there have been some incredible matches and performances.
The 1975 County Championship match at Buxton between Derbyshire and Lancashire is justly one of the most famous in the history of the competition. As well as producing the highest score in the hundred-overs limit (477-5 by Lancashire), and Derbyshire's heaviest defeat since 1898, it of course saw play abandoned on the Monday because of a heavy snowfall, two days after the ground had basked in warm sunshine, and on the verge of one of the hottest summers of recent years.
