I have been away for many years. I just found out that Poolstock CC ground is derelict. Why ?

Hi I know most of the names of the guys in the picture, they were house hold names when I was a kid. A few guys that played but are not in the picture were Jimmy Tennant, Allen Haggarty Tubby Thompson, also my uncle Ernie Fillingham. I still somewhere have a score record book of
the matches that he played in, some record he had.
