Cuckfield is in Mid-Sussex and cricket has been played on various grounds in the village since 1741 when a match was played on the 'North Field'. The purchase of the club's ground for a burial ground extension in 1854 led to a decline in the club's fortunes, but from 1868 with a relocation to Ockenden, the club began to flourish once again, to the extent that for four seasons Fred Tate was the opening bowler. Listen in to this fascinating story of one of the oldest cricket clubs in Sussex.
