Some of you may remember this Cricket Club. They had an attractive ground on sloping ground just off Pool Road in Pool . They played in the Airedale and Wharfedale Senior league but sadly folded at the end of the 2003 season.The ground and dressing rooms have remained almost untouched since then - I have posted some pics on my flickr photostream that might be of interest...http://www.flickr.com/photos/drapesy/

Its the A659 , just west of Pool on the way to Otley , on the south side. You can see it from the main Road. I thought so. I guess Pool Mills is the large building (paper mill?) on the other side of the road from the big shed with the forrest painted on it's side.
