Tothill Fields
Tothill Fields was an 18th-century area of Westminster in the county of Middlesex that lay south of St James's Park on the north bank of the river Thames. One of its main features was a penitentiary.
Between 1735 and 1752, it was the home venue of the Westminster Cricket Club. The earliest known match there was in August 1735, when Westminster defeated London by 3 wickets. Records have survived of two Westminster matches there in 1752, both against Addington. The result of the first is unknown and Westminster won the second by 10 runs.
