| Description | The Farnham Cricket Club grounds are located north-east of Farnham Castle and are bounded to the south-west by the outer defensive ditch of the castle and to the south and east by Farnham Park. In 2006 the club received permission to expand the grounds slightly over the south-eastern boundary of the park to permit the construction of additional practice nets. As part of this project the author was asked by Waverley Borough Council to open a series of archaeological test trenches in advance of the actual work.Co-authored by Graham, A. |
