Its been a long time since Priory Ruins played a game of cricket! Our last game was back in 2003 after which we decided to fold the club. This website vanished at that time, but due to recent sad news about Bill Balcombe, I have decided to bring it back to life again as a memorial if nothing else.

Nothing on the site has changed and it certainly looks very dated now. Take a look through it, enjoy the humour of the match reports, the player profiles and Kevin Andrews in general!

To my mind, there was something special about Priory Ruins Cricket Club. I have never enjoyed playing cricket so much as I did for Ruins - I made (and lost) a lot of good friends through the club. Maybe, just maybe, one day Ruins will rise from the ashes for one last game???
