The Leinster Sports Club complex is situated in the Observatory Lane ground, in the heart of Rathmines.
In 1860, Leinster hosted the first visit to Ireland by the All-England XI on the club's field in Lord Palmerston's demesne.
The club also brought W. G. Grace to Ireland for the first time in 1873.
In 1875 Ireland's rugby union team played its first home game at the cricket ground as Lansdowne Road was deemed unsuitable.
