LORD’S CRICKET GROUND
The tour starts in the MCC Museum, home of the famous Ashes urn. The Museum brings the fascinating story of cricket to life. Paintings, photographs and artefacts, covering 400 years of cricket history, reveal the game’s development from a rural pastime to a modern, increasingly international sport.
Precious exhibits include the Wisden Trophy and the tiny, delicate and irreplaceable Ashes urn.
The museum also boasts bats, balls and kit donated by great players including Rahul Dravid, Mahela Jayawardene, Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne – as well as from past greats such as WG Grace, Victor Trumper, Jack Hobbs, Keith Miller and Don Bradman.
The tour continues through the heart of the Pavilion to the famed Long Room, both a cricket-watching room and a cricket art gallery. The Long Room has a unique atmosphere, panoramic views of the pitch and is where players make their way to and from the ‘hallowed turf’. Almost any famous cricketer you can think of has made that long walk at least once in their career.
Other highlights include the players’ Dressing Rooms with the renowned Lord’s Honours Boards, providing a lasting reminder of exceptional batting and bowling performances in Lord’s Tests.
Admire the unrivalled view from the J.P. Morgan Media Centre, enjoyed by correspondents from Sky Sports and BBC Test Match Special and of course the famed The Daily Telegraph before finishing off at Lords Cricket Ground shop.
