Description

The Remarkable Village Cricket Grounds is a treasure trove of British cricketing history, showcasing the unique and atmospheric grounds where village cricket is played. From seaside pitches to those nestled in the heart of moorland, this book features a stunning collection of 224 beautifully illustrated pages. The author, Brian Levison, has focused on the smallest, yet most charming, cricket venues in the British Isles, including those played next to windmills, thatched cottages, and trout streams. The book also includes classic cricketing pubs, ancient pitch rollers, and a variety of warning signs, adding to the rich tapestry of British life. With clubs from across the country, including Devon, Somerset, and Yorkshire, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in the history and culture of cricket in the UK.
