Great Bromley & District Cricket Club was formed in 1920.
The ground, which is situated behind the village hall, is widely regarded as a
beautiful place to play cricket. Apart from
the present crop of stars that can be seen at Great Bromley, it was reported
that Douglas Jardine and Ken Farnes both played here during the war.
