The Municipal Ground is a cricket ground in Alton, Hampshire. The ground was constructed as a result of the efforts of G.J. Poole, the headmaster of a local Grammar School.[1] Constructed by 1899, the Hampshire Second XI played there in 1899 in the grounds first recorded match,[2] while Hampshire later played one first-class match at the ground, against the touring South Africans in 1904.[3] The match ended in a South African victory by an innings and 19 runs, during which South African batsman Louis Tancred was dismissed for 99 by Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard, while in Hampshire's first-innings Johannes Kotze took a five wicket haul with figures of 5/66.[4]
