 Former Australian opener and current Somerset captain Justin Langer has spoken of his admiration for our former player Mark Ramprakash who recently became the latest and probably last member of the ‘100’ club.
“Watching Mark Ramprakash score his 101st first-class century was like studying a master craftsman plying his trade. From first slip it felt as though we were witnessing genius at work. For 337 balls - and I am sure my team-mates won't mind me saying - we did not look like getting him out. |

Welcome to Bessborough Cricket Club |

Welcome to the new Bessborough Cricket Club site. Apologies for the delay in updating the old site but we wanted to get this site right.
The club was established in 1908 and is based in a secluded area at Headstone Manor, North Harrow.
We currently run up to 4 Saturday, 2 Sunday teams and a Twenty20 midweek side. We also have a strong colts section which caters for age groups under 10's to under 17's. We also have an associated ladies section under the title of Headstone Manor Ladies.
Saturdays 3 teams participate in the Middlesex County League and Sundays the Slazenger Chess Valley League and friendlys. Traditionally we travel to South Wales first week in August to play 4 top teams, completing the tour at Lydney C.C., incidentally a fixture played for the last 25 years.
In the winter months senior and colt teams play in Harrow cricket indoor leagues, whilst other members compete in the local cricketers darts league. Tuesday nights the club is open for socialising and other events, pool competitions, quiz nights etc.
Social members and players of all standards are welcomed at this friendly club.
