NEHL - Leadgate CC's first cricket ground was located at a field close to Bunker Hill farm. It was a relatively casual setting with no formal facilities, and is not illustrated on the Ordnance Survey. There are a couple of potential candidates, namely the field adjacent to the farm which had a footpath running through the centre close to an old quarry. Nowadays, this area is all farmland.
