CHAGFORD Cricket Club has been included
in the prestigious Wisden
Cricket Calendar for 2010, featuring some of the
UK’s loveliest cricket grounds.
There were 12 grounds featured and photographed by Philip Wilcox, who is a specialist cricket and sports photographer.
Philip told Mike Wreford, the
Chagford CC president that he found out about the ground due to the two
features in The Sunday Telegraph and also
from his mother, who heard about the ground while on holiday in Devon.
The grounds featured were spread
far and wide including, Yorkshire, Wales Somerset, Cornwall, Cumbria, Northumberland
and Surrey.
“It is quite nice that the hard work put in by the people of Chagford is recognised in this way and of course during the winter months it is used for football with pitches either side of the square,” said Wreford.
