Description
The Cricketers - Richard Reeve
This is not a particularly common name for a public house, but this one at Southwick in West Sussex presumably celebrates the old village green which it sits opposite, and upon which cricket is still played periodically. Ah, the "thwack" of the leather ball being hit successfully by the willow bat of the batsman, despite the bowler's best effort to bowl him out. The gentle clapping from the crowd and perhaps a gasp and a cheer as he is caught out near the boundary by a sprightly out fielder. What better way to enjoy and English summer than watching the match from the pub, or enjoying a pint with the teams at the end of the day?
