Haworth Cricket Club

Set in the picturesque rolling hillsides of the Upper Worth Valley, near Keighley, West Yorkshire, England, Haworth Cricket Club is in a glorious spot - unless there's a chill north-westerly wind whistling down the valley and across the pitch! We are approximately a quarter of a mile from the world-famous Bronte Parsonage and Haworth village and the famous walk to the Bronte Bridge comes very close to us. Haworth Station, on the excellent Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (best known for 'The Railway Children' film with Jenny Agutter, and 'Yanks' with Richard Gere, and has starred in countless other TV and film productions) is about a mile away.
Nothing could be better than a good day's cricket in the sun, the sound of steam trains chuffing along the valley, a butty in one hand, a cup of tea in the other and a good home score on the board!
