With no play possible in either Netherfield's match at Preston or Chorley's game at Morecambe, Netherfield thus retain the championship by a three-point margin over Chorley, runners-up again for the sixth time in eight years.
The only match to start was at Leyland DAF where the home side collected four points from a rain-affected winning draw against Lancaster but these were not enough to lift DAF above third place.
It was a double frustrating end to the season for Chorley because under the new points system they missed out on the title despite winning more games than any of their rivals. Ironically last year they finished level on points with Netherfield but were pipped for the championship because the Kendal side had won one more.
