Some readers may be familiar with the book Inns and Outs published in 2010 and compiled by Geoff Wellsteed and Anthony Collis. It is a 190 page hardback featuring pubs with cricket connections and almost 500 colour photographs of inn signs. I was lent a copy of the book by Pickering scorer and blog follower Trevor Gilham and Trevor has kindly forwarded me an update to the book recently published by Geoff. This includes pictures of some new signs and details of closures. This is the second such update, no1 having been published in November 2012.
Geoff has a very small number* of the original book still available and can be contacted on 0151 6256470 or 07443909232 or via email at geoffwellsteed@hotmail.com.
The books are £10 plus postage and Geoff also has some postcards available at £3 for a set of 8.
*I checked with Geoff this evening and he still has copies of the book for sale

About the project:
This blog was originated in 2008 as an offshoot of the separate website ‘The cricket history of Calderdale and Kirklees’ which covered in depth the histories of every league cricket club in these two areas of West Yorkshire. Unfortunately this site fell into disuse although there are now plans to reinstate it by the Yorkshire Cricket Foundation.
Meanwhile the blog has gone its own way and has expanded into a review of cricket at all levels throughout the north of England, both past and present. The three current bloggers are all Yorkshire based. Tony Hutton and John Winn are both members of Durham and Yorkshire county clubs and Brian Sanderson is an active member of the Yorkshire archives committee.
We have now recruited Lancashire based Mike Latham, well known in both cricket and rugby league circles, to provide an ever wider coverage of cricket from the north.
