Bury Hill, Arundel
Bury Hill is an area of West Sussex lying north of Arundel and west of Amberley. In the 18th century, its name was spelled Berry Hill and it was used as a venue for major cricket matches.〔The term "major cricket" deserves some qualification. It is not limited to "first-class cricket" which is a misleading concept that is essentially statistical and may typically ignore the more important historical aspect of a match if statistical information is missing, as is invariably the case re matches played prior to 1772. From that season, scorecards began to be created habitually and there is a continuous and adequate, though incomplete, statistical record commencing in 1772. Major cricket in the Stuart and Hanoverian periods includes both single wicket and eleven-a-side games. Features of these matches include high stakes, large crowds and evidence that the teams are representative of several parishes, perhaps of whole counties. Except in rare instances, village cricket in the shape of a match played between two parish teams, would be classified as minor.〕
==Cricket matches==
Bury Hill was possibly the venue for the match in 1702 between the 1st Duke of Richmond's XI and an Arundel XI.〔McCann, p. 1.〕 The earliest known definite use of the venue was on Tuesday, 20 July 1725 for the 2nd Duke of Richmond's XI ''versus'' Sir William Gage's XI which Richmond's XI won by over 40 runs.〔McCann, p. 19.〕 The same fixture was held there again on Friday, 12 June 1730, but the result is unknown.〔McCann, p. 10.〕 On Monday, 26 August 1745, it was used for a Sussex ''versus'' Surrey match which Surrey are believed to have won.〔McCann, p. xx.〕
