Cricket pavilion at Oldfields Sports Ground
10-MAY-00
II
Cricket pavilion. 1904; by E. Forshaw of Uttoxeter, for John Bamford. Brick, clad in applied timber-framing, with roughcast panels, the roughcast being small pieces of broken glass instead of pebbles or stone chippings. Clay plain tile roof with lead rolls to the hips and with projecting eaves.
PLAN: low central range with verandah at front with balcony above, and with square-on-plan flanking pavilions.
EXTERIOR: single storey central range with row of sash windows and central doorway onto a verandah with cast-iron posts and iron brackets supporting a balcony above with plain wooden balustrade with stick balusters. Flanking right and left are two storey pavilions with tent-shaped hipped roofs with projecting eaves; the tops of the pavilions with weather-vanes have been removed. The rows of windows have glazing bars in their top lights only. At rear small single-storey brick extensions with flat roofs.
NOTE: The pavilion was built for John Bamford. The Bamfords XI used the pavilion, and at this ground played many international games before the First World War, against Australia, the West Indies and South Africa, as well as against the M.C.C.
