A Historic Ground Improved

Broadhalfpenny Down Marks a Landmark Year in Style

Following last year's fundraising, we have been busy during the winter months upgrading the pavilion.

We have begun improving the car park area to cope with wet days, thanks to the support of Winchester City Council. We have installed a new hot water system and heating to ensure our visitors are comfortable. Thank you to everyone involved who have put in so much time and effort over the winter.

2026 is a celebratory year with the 250th Anniversary of the introduction of the third stump, and we will be offering more hospitality in the pavilion. Our events calendar includes weddings and parties, and the season kicks off with an Evening with ex-England cricketer Steven Finn at the Bat and Ball pub, opposite the ground on 22nd April.

2026 will be a landmark year to enjoy cricket and this fabulous historic venue.
