Description
The Cricket Pavilion, located in Birkenhead Park, was built around 1860. It is constructed of brick and features a Welsh slate roof. The pavilion is a single-storey building with three projecting canopied gables supported by Corinthian cast-iron columns, which create a timbered porch over the front verandah. The central entrance has a door flanked by paired stilted arched windows. At the top of the central gable, there is a clock with the date 1846, marking the foundation year of the cricket club.
