HISTORY
The club was formed in 1888 as 'Blagdon and West Mendip Cricket and Quoit Club' and only played in friendly matches until joining the Bristol & District League in 1975.
We have played at a number of grounds in our history but have been based at the picturesque 'Bartons' since 1947. The full list of grounds we've played at are as follows:

WEB SITE
This site was created in 2000 and has been redesigned many times over the years to end up with the look you now see. The site is very much statistically focused but that's what happens when the club scorer and statistician is also the webmaster!!
We do have a Play Cricket web site but it is used mainly for the youth element of the club, as the team Managers can upload information to it a lot quicker and easier than they can on here.
The site is best viewed with Internet Explorer 8 at a resolution of 1024x768. |
