History
Originally in the mid 19th century cricket was played down by the river behind Albion Road. Development by the Midland Railway made a move necessary. Thus 2001 was the centenary of both cricket and bowls at the Church Road ground. The opening ceremony took place on 4th May 1901. Immediately afterwards the first match was played: New Mills v Hayfield. Hayfield won.
