Cricket Exhibition: The Cricket Legacy of Sheffield Park.
A new exhibition exploring how the 3rd Earl of Sheffield’s love for cricket shaped the game’s local and international history, from funding and accompanying the England cricket team to Australia, to donating money for the iconic Sheffield Shield.
The exhibition is situated in Peacock Place, adjacent to the Coach House Café at the National Trust gardens at Sheffield Park. It will run from Saturday 27th September until Sunday 23rd November. Further details can be found at nationaltrust.org.uk/sheffieldpark.
Each championship game and One Day Cup game played at Hove this summer will feature a quiz based on the history of the matches between Sussex and their opponents. Click here for the questions and answers for each quiz.
