Occasional home of Science Museum and other sides. A quirky ground with little facilities but a lovely place to enjoy a game. The ground is entirely surrounded by trees, although the
train line is very close. The fast outfield, short boundaries and uneven wicket tend to produce entertaining games with plenty of runs and wickets. One of those rare pitches were passers by often sit and watch some of the action
(although normally walking away is disgust when we play there).

Changing Rooms |
|
|
|
|
Exit Barnes station via the car park, take the path on the left and the ground is about 200 yards (200m) down the path. The changing rooms are the far side
of the ground and over the road. Some choose not to bother are they are quite a distance from the pitch. |

The facilities aren't great but the ground is one of my favourites and has it's own charm. White cricket balls are a must otherwise you'll lose loads in the trees. |
