In 1961, the ground hosted a first-class match in the County Championship when Nottinghamshire played Sussex. [5] Norman Hill of Nottinghamshire made 201 not out, then Alan Oakman of Sussex made 229 not out, and after two declarations Sussex won by nine wickets. [6] The pitch and ground were excellent, but in the relatively remote location the gate takings were poor, and Nottinghamshire never played there again. [7]
