While Lords is the spiritual home of English cricket, it is The Oval (offically The Brit Insurance Oval), home of Surrey County Cricket Club, that fills up week in, week out for County Cricket. For the ultimate English sporting experience, spend a blazing summer's day watching a test match at this 150-year-old ground.
See the Londontown.com events guide for details. |
