Description

No-one does club cricket quite like Yorkshire. Brilliant, beguiling and blockbuster. Whitewashed stone walls on craggy hilltops. Rusty, ancient rollers in the tall grass. Even horses cantering across the square during a league match.

In Brews on the Boundary, John Fuller takes you on a tour of dozens of games, played on boggy outfields and pitches turned to crazy paving by the sun.

Read about the pavilion transported across a motorway, Hurricanes at Headingley and more adventures. 

From bhajis by the bandstand in Saltaire to award-winning cricket teas at Stainland, stories flow across the summer. The history of the Heavy Woollen Cup and pride of South Yorkshire rub shoulders with Crakehall's no-six rule and bucolic Booth. 

In the follow-up to Dales, Bails & Cricket Club Tales and All Wickets Great and Small, this is a heart-felt, evocative travelogue on Yorkshire's cricket clubs from the 2024 & 2025 seasons.
