The Sports Ground was on the Eastwood side of the Gt Northern Station it sat just behind
the dairy.It had as you say a fine bowling green 2 tennis courts and a cricket pitch all now swallowed up by the bypass and Warburtons bakery. Behind this was The Nissen
Huts housing the Polish Refugees which later became the Mushroom Farm.The Cricket Pitch was not over big and the ball had to be fetched off the Railway lines quite often .I played both for and against on this ground in the 1950-60s.The team played in the Notts and Derby Border League in a division mostly comprising of Second Eleven Sides and played friendlies on a Wednesday the traditional Half Day Closing.
