LOWER CASTLE PARK

'Castle Park Cricket Ground' is occasionally used by Essex County Cricket Club for some of their First-class cricket matches. It is located in Catchpool Road in Colchester.
The ground was opened in 1908 and the first match played here was in June 18 1914 between Essex and Worcestershire in the County Championship. The last Essex match here was staged on August 21 in 2002. When the ground isn't used to stage First-class cricket matches, it is frequently used for Colchester & East Essex Cricket Club.
Castle Park is by far the most attractive of the grounds used by the Essex County Cricket Club when bordered by the remains of the Roman Wall and the willow-lined River Colne. However, this is the cause of the ground's drainage problems.
