Vine Cricket Ground
The Vine Cricket Ground (''aka'' Sevenoaks Vine) is one of the oldest cricket venues in England. It was given to the town of Sevenoaks in 1773 by John Frederick Sackville, 3rd Duke of Dorset (1745 – 1799) and owner of Knole House. The land was thought previously to have been used as a vineyard for the Archbishops of Canterbury (hence the name).
==Rent==
The weatherboard pavilion is 19th-century and listed. Sevenoaks Vine Cricket Club and Sevenoaks Hockey Club are the two sports sections of The Sevenoaks Vine Club which now holds the head lease from the Town Council.
Sevenoaks Vine Cricket Club pay Sevenoaks Town Council a rent of 1 peppercorn per year for the use of the ground, the archetypal peppercorn rent, but pay for all of the upkeep of The Vine even though it is common ground. SVCC used to pay one peppercorn for the pavilion but that has now assumed a more commercial rent of about £3600 p.a. and is paid by the The Sevenoaks Vine Club. In keeping with tradition SVCC pay Lord Sackville (if asked) one cricket ball on 21 July each year. In practice this ceremony happens every year on the Wednesday of cricket week, which is the second week in July.
