==History==
Macclesfield Cricket Club has been in existence for over 180 years, though where the club originally played is unknown. The first recorded match on the current ground came in Cheshire's first match there in the 1921 Minor Counties Championship against Staffordshire.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played on Macclesfield Cricket Club Ground )〕 Cheshire played an annual Minor Counties Championship at the ground until 1931.〔 Minor counties cricket did not return to the ground until 1949, when Cheshire played the Worcestershire Second XI in the Minor Counties Championship. Cheshire played annually at the ground throughout the 1950s and 1960s. It was in the 1966 Gillette Cup that the ground held its first List A match when Cheshire played first-class opponents in the form of Lancashire.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List A Matches played on Macclesfield Cricket Club Ground )〕 Two further List A matches were held there in the 1968 Gillette Cup, with Cheshire defeating Norfolk in a first round match, but losing to Northamptonshire in the second round.〔 A final List A match was held there in 1974, when the ground was selected as a home venue for Minor Counties North in the Benson & Hedges Cup, with Lancashire as the visitors.〔 The ground continued to host Minor Counties Championship matches during the 1970s, with the final Minor Counties Championship match held in 1982.〔 In 1983, the ground held the first final of the MCCA Knockout Trophy, which saw Cheshire triumph over Bedfordshire.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cheshire v Bedfordshire, 1983 MCCA Kockout Trophy )〕 A second MCCA Knockout Trophy match was held in 1984, with Hertfordshire as the visitors.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Trophy Matches played on Macclesfield Cricket Club Ground )〕 This was the last time the ground was used by Cheshire.
In latter years the ground has had to contend with deteriorating facilities. In 2003, plans were drawn up for Macclesfield Cricket Club to sell the ground for development and move to a new ground along London Road.〔 However these plans failed to come to fruition. In 2011, plans were drawn up to transform the ground into one of the leading leisure facilities in Cheshire, with the undertaking of an £800,000 redevelopment project.
