NEHL - This cricket ground was in use during the 20th century and potentially home to workers from the Spencer Steel Works. Peter McDonough advises there was once a pavilion and changing facilities.

Newburn has been home to a cricket club since at least the 1850s, though it is unclear they ever played here. Maps throughout the decades show a field boundary resembling a cricket ground but no labels or buildings which can correlate. The ground still survives though overgrown and disused.

The ground can be seen on aerial imagery from 1945.
