EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of Harborne Cricket Club in the early 1900s, a time of great progress and growth for the esteemed sports club based in south-west Birmingham. Founded in May 1868, Harborne Cricket Club is one of the oldest and largest cricket clubs in the Midlands, with a rich history that spans over a century and a half. In this image, taken in 1907, we see the club's pavilion standing proudly beside the lush, green cricket pitch. The well-maintained ground, dotted with spectators, is a testament to the dedication and passion of the club's members. The pavilion, with its distinctive architecture and intricate detailing, serves as a hub of activity for players and supporters alike. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the sartorial elegance of the era. The players, dressed in crisp white cricket uniforms, are seen engaging in a lively match, their concentration unbroken as they focus on the game. The spectators, dressed in their Sunday best, are equally engrossed, their expressions reflecting the excitement and anticipation of the moment. As we look at this photograph, we cannot help but be transported back in time, to an era of simpler pleasures and communal spirit. The game of cricket, with its rich traditions and enduring appeal, continues to bring people together, much like Harborne Cricket Club has done for over a century. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the club's proud history and its enduring role as a cherished institution in the heart of south-west Birmingham.
