Lynton Cricket Ground: the last match of the season
Lynton Cricket Ground: the last match of the season
The home team, here fielding, are finishing the season with a friendly match against Strongroom CC (LinkExternal link ), a team from London. The visitors are on their way to a total of 216 (which proved too much for the home team).
Lynton Cricket Ground

Situated in the Valley of Rocks this must be one of the most spectacularly sited cricket grounds in the country. It is the home of Lynton & Lynmouth Cricket Club (founded in 1876, see LinkExternal link ) who play in the North Devon League. However, it is used for more than the Club's home league matches. Such is its fame that it is a popular venue for touring sides to play at.
