St Lawrence Ground Canterbury Kent CT1 3NZ
A major tourist attraction, thanks to the Cathedral dating back to 597 AD, Canterbury is famed in story and stage as the scene for the slaying of Thomas a Beckett in 1172. The most notable landmark for cricket enthusiasts, though, is a 180-year old lime tree located just inside the boundary rope. Sadly, word out of England is that the tree is diseased and will be replaced shortly. The 10,000 seater ground will be England's home base.
Canterbury has never played host to an LOI till date. Schedule: 18 May, England v Kenya Been there, done that? Tell us about it... Do you live near one of the venues?
