looks amazing mate

Thanks - not great if you are a bowler, the pitch is pretty flat, in 50 overs, 280 is a par score, but lovely facilities. At Headley where i play on a sunday, it is equally as lovely, just a real old school village club. I am very lucky with where I play
-
which clubs do you play for?

Incredible place!! Lawn tennis too!!
-
yes - they have junior wimbledon and the wimbledon qualifiers their in the summer - it is a cracking facility - I only wish I was able to use it more. I used to live 5 min from the ground, but moved out of town to get a bigger house - four bedroom places with large gardens aren't so cheap in Putney/Barnes!!!

Some more good ones of my ground, the 1st one is good.

these 2 grounds are where i play friendly cricket at....
Bridgetown CC (West Somerset)- Won the Daily Mail Prettiest Ground Competition in the whole country in 2008. Is also Ian Bothams favourite ground. Thatched pavillion, river running down the side with a wooden bridge over to the ground. Nice views all around, perfect!
http://www.bridgetowncc.co.uk/index.html
Timberscombe CC (West Somerset)- I'm vice captain for the friendly side here, in my opinion its not as nice as Bridgetown but still a very nice ground! Really good views all around, the website doesn't have the best pics but you get the idea :D

I've only been to bridgetown once, but despite smal I fell in love with it, the small hut takes you back to old times, but it gives the ground that feeling. Only problem is the toliets lol
-
yeah its really small! the ground, the pavillion, the changing rooms lol. and yeah you have to improvise with the toilets haha!

Nice Mr C I love an old school village cricket ground
Here is a pic of my village ground where I play on a Sunday (Headley) from last summer - just found it on my phone (as being inspected by my then pregnant wife!)

I thought i would ressurect this topic as finally their has been some sun on our new ground to get some good looking pictures. The ground and pavilion were finished this season after a long wait and years of fundraising to get away from playing on a council owned ground.

Looks very nice
-
Yep, some of these are stunning. I'll get some pictures up of Radley CC later but as much as we gain from having the pitches and facilities i'd love a ground like the one Roco plays at. Something nice about these places, tucked away in the countryside.... superb!
-
Will be at Radley tomorrow, watching there seconds

Always love playing at Headley, Fond memories of a ball being dispatched into the bacon sandwich van across the road :)
-
Played at Tenterden CC last week, very very nice ground, I'm sure Matt at H4L would agree with me.
-
Yes my home ground stewie ! And mr black cats too!

I am from Essex and play for Woodford Green C.C. It is known as 'possibly'the oldest running cricket club in the U.K to still be playing at it's original ground - since 1735! If it is the oldest in the UK then it could very well be the oldest in the world too..
A nice little honour :)
Here is a few shots of our 277 year old playing deck on a good day..
