Description
of the Ground
The club's entrance is on Queens Drive, the seafront road.
Visitors are often surprised to find a large fast-draining
cricket ground with eighteen wickets when the surrounding
area is mostly sand dunes. On entering the ground you
are immediately struck by the pavilion on the opposite
side of the ground below what was once the sea cliff and
set alongside lime, chestnut and other deciduous trees.
The playing area is large, allowing 65 metre boundaries
and still having considerable capacity for spectators
and members to drive onto the ground and watch the entertainment.
The ground drains very quickly and matches often proceed
on time even when the weather leading up to the match
has been atrocious.

The
clubhouse is on two floors, the ground floor consisting
of changing rooms, showers and separate public toilets.
The first floor consists of the bar and clubroom with
a large open balcony regularly displaying large colourful
hanging baskets. In addition there is a modern fitted
kitchen and a committee/viewing room.
In
the northwest comer of the ground is the equipment building
with a spacious scorebox above on the first floor. Modern
methods of scoring can be accommodated with a provision
of telephone lines and electricity in the scorebox. To
the rear of the scorebox are the club's tea hut and tea
gardens. This facility provides players' and public refreshments
with a good selection of meals available.
The
club was successful in 1994 in securing lottery funding
for an all weather enclosed practice area with three full
sized nets situated in the north-eastern side of the ground.
