History

The ground was established in 1928. Cheshire first used the ground in the 1982 Minor Counties Championship against Northumberland. The ground hosted a single Minor Counties Championship annually until 1998, with fourteen matches being played there, the last of which saw Oxfordshire at the visitors. [1] The ground held its first List A match when Cheshire played Cornwall in the second round of the 2002 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy, which was held in 2001 to avoid fixture congestion. [2] A second List A match was held there in 2002, when Cheshire played Huntingdonshire in the first round of the 2003 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy, with its early round matches once again played in the season before to avoid fixture congestion in 2003. [2] Cheshire lost to Cornwall, but defeated Huntingdonshire. Cheshire returned to the ground in 2012, playing a MCCA Knockout Trophy match against Dorset. [3]
