Was your loved one a fan of the thwack of leather on willow? If so then this may be perfect…
It is little I repair to the matches of the Southron folk,
Though my own red roses there may blow;
It is little I repair to the matches of the Southron folk,
Though the red roses crest the caps, I know.
For the field is full of shades as I near the shadowy coast,
And a ghostly batsman plays to the bowling of a ghost,
And I look through my tears on a soundless-clapping host
As the run-stealers flicker to and fro,
To and fro: –
O my Hornby and my Barlow long ago!

Good Afternoon, My father has recently passed and I would like to scatter his ashes at Lords.He was a lover of attending Lords and had many happy days there.
We are not members unfortunately. Is there anyway we could carry out this request please if possible?
Dear James
You would need to contact the club directly try reception@mcc.org.uk to start with.
Kind regards
Richard
