    The tour of Lord's is a must for any cricket fan. To see the Long Room and the rest of the pavilion as well as the media centre is a fantastic experience. And of course the Ashes!

    This is such a beautiful cricket ground! It has so much history behind it, mainly because it is said to be the "home of cricket." It was used as an archery range for the 2012 Olympic Games.

    The home of cricket. Check out a local county game through the summer or just enjoy a beer in the pub outside. Even if you don't understand the rules of the game, definitely worth a visit.

    The oldest regular fixture at the ‘home of cricket’ is the annual Eton vs Harrow schools match, played here since 1818. In the museum you can find the passing bird killed by a cricket shot in 1936.

    Bring your food with you. Sarnies, pasta and crisps plus fruit are perfect test match munch and much cheaper than the (rather excellent/expensive) in-ground catering!

    Known as the Home of cricket, the north London venue plays host to England Test matches as well as those played by Middlesex County Cricket Club.

    The only cricket ground that still allows you to bring your own drinks in for a test match- but only 2 cans a person.
