List of cricket grounds in England and Wales
This is a list of cricket grounds in England and Wales, listed in alphabetical order and based on each traditional English and Welsh county. The venues in this list have all been used for senior cricket matches but not by the current first-class county or university clubs, whose grounds are listed in each club's own article as indicated below (e.g., The Oval is in List of Surrey County Cricket Club grounds). Senior cricket matches include first-class (pre-1895), first-class since 1895, single wicket, limited overs and Twenty20. Venues used only for junior or minor matches are excluded unless they have a special historic interest. Some of the venues are dated to the early 18th century and many are now defunct (marked by †).
