RIDDLESDEN

By Brian Sanderson,

The ninth ground we arrived at 6.15 was Riddleden which is situated in Keighley  and  next to the River Aire.The green  netting round the ground is to try and stop the ball going in the river.Also there is a electric pylon in the ground and live electricity wire cross the ground. Riddlesden had scored 299 in four-five overs against Thornton-in Craven.We tried to visit their ground at the start of last season but all Craven League  fixtures had been put back a week because of the rain.
Scoreboard showing the Thornton score so the match had still 28 overs to go at 6.20.

Great day and I too nearly eighty photographs and I hope our viewers of the blog enjoy them.Also it may  encourage people to visit this part of Yorkshire.To-morrow Headingley for the first home match for Yorkshire.
