Plaque for Marlylebone Cricket Club in Dorset Square London
Right next to Marylebone Station and Baker Street is a lovely London Square. Dorset Square. The plaque reads: What a treat it is to take a slow walk through London and come across space like this where history was made. The squares are flanked by marvellous London Houses; one can almost hear the sound of the horses and carriages as you stand in awe. Thomas Lord laid out his original Cricket Ground on this site in 1878. The MCC was founded here in the same year. It was laid to mark the bi-centenary of the first cricket match played at Dorset Fields and revealed by Colin Cowdrey
