Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cricket square on the green The large, irregularly shaped village green is raised above the level of the surrounding roads and houses and is said to be one of only two such raised greens in England. There has probably been an open space here for centuries, but it is said that in the 18th century the raised green was converted from a rubbish dump by Scorton Grammar School, who then used it as a playing field. Village cricket matches are held here in summer as well as an annual feast in August.
