A century and a half of village cricket

Damerham Cricket Club clearly existed before 1859 (you would imagine this was not their first game) but here, from The Salisbury And Winchester Journal And General Advertiser in 1859, is the earliest recorded evidence of it.

This evidence has been searched out by our Secretary and encyclopaedic club historian Graham Colbourne, and comes to us courtesy of the British Library.
