The former cricket pavilion in Torr Park has been ‘lent’ to the Friends of Torr Park as a place to store their equipment and rest after their labours in the Park.
The graffiti-covered building has been an eyesore ever since the cricketers left pre covid.
When the door was opened, it looked like a time warp. The interior had remained untouched since the last game; the umpire’s coats were left hanging, ready for the next game, and photos and trophies still adorned the walls.
Cricket has been played in Eastham for over 150 years – it’s time to resume the tradition.
