Carmel Cricket Club

It is not cricket weather, but I came across this old photograph of a cricket match at Carmel taken on a proper summers day. The image dates from  1982 and shows a game taking place at the Golch Farm ground. The club now plays on a new and much better ground two miles up the road towards Lloc. Yet the memory of Golch Farm matches remains in my mind. The games were always preceded by a grand pick of sheep droppings by willing (?) volunteers.

A wicket falls: it was usually mine, but not on this occasion.
