One of the biggest mysteries of all time how the cricket club went to ruin? Now sadly an over grown dump !

Brilliant picture Ken. My sister had her wedding reception in the club in 1965 - brought back memories. . . Thanks

I knew Billy Jones well. Sadly he passed away a couple of years ago. He was a good friend of Maurice Lindsey. Is the Jimmy Morris in the photo the same guy who was the landlord of the Fox Tavern on Chapel Lane? Also an Arthur Hayton had a paint shop on Wigan Lane. Is it the same gentleman?
