Bakewell cricket pavillion

There’s not much cricket being played in November (outdoors, at least) so there wasn’t much activity at the pavilion when I walked past. One guy was sat in front reading a newspaper when I approached, but he’d moved on by the time I made some pictures.

Cricket ground

This is the cricket ground in Queen’s Park, Chesterfield. This photo was made on my first ever visit to this location, early one Sunday morning (the same Sunday when I took the picture of the Austin A90 featured in yesterday’s post). It’s quite a nice park, with a pond, bandstand, a glasshouse (seen to the middle right of this photo), as well as the cricket ground itself. I believe that the park extends with sports fields beyong the trees you can see in this picture. It’s pencilled into my mental list of interesting places to make photographs, should I be in the vicinity again.
