Lancashire Cricket Heritage Experience

We will transform Old Trafford Cricket Ground into a year-round heritage site, spotlighting Lancashire Cricket’s pivotal role in the community for over 160 years. This project will be a celebration of the ground and cricket throughout Lancashire, elevating the Club’s rich history and emphasising the profound impact cricket has on local communities. The project’s core is an interactive heritage hub, outreach and educational programme to safeguard and promote Lancashire Cricket’s sporting and cultural heritage. Objectives include enhancing visitor access, deepening heritage understanding, and engaging with new and diverse audiences to contribute to the next century of memories and heritage. The project will connect thousands of people across the region through an innovative programme of sustained activities, exhibitions and events across hundreds of schools, grassroots cricket clubs and communities. Lancashire Cricket has a beautifully unique history. Through this project, we will ensure it is celebrated and preserved for generations to come.
