Tynemouth Cricket Club, founded in 1847, has the distinction of being the oldest continuous playing club in Northumberland and we have played on the very same ground off Preston Avenue, North Shields since 1885. The pavilion was opened in 1902 after the previous wooden building was wrecked by severe gales. Now, almost a century later, history has repeated itself, with the clubhouse and pavilion being fully refurbished. Tynemouth CC has a long and proud tradition of encouraging all to enjoy the game of cricket.
