KILDALE

By Brian Sanderson,

Another trip towards the East Coast on a nice sunny day, quite a contrast to Thursday.The first ground we visited was Kildale which is in the Hambleton District of North Yorkshire . It lies approximately three miles from Great Ayton within the North Yorkshire National Park and on the Cleveland Way.Quoting from Wikipedia ,the cricket club were 2012 champions of the Langburgh League . The first team is captained by Marty Pellow . Other notable players include leg spinning talisman and amateur competitive eating champion of North East England James Burn. The team,s ground is one of the most picturesque in Great Britain.Today they were playing East Hardsley and due to the views of the ground I have decided to show a number of photographs of the ground. If you were producing a book a scenic grounds you would have to include this ground.

What a great view from the house on the hill.

Quarry workers houses in the distance.

 Great views toward the hills

A great place to play cricket
