John O'Ds Review Of
Nat West Bank (Formed 1859) |
Location
|
The Gambinos. 23 miles from Reigate
in Copers Cope Road, Beckenham.
The nearest railway station is Lower Sydenham.
Post Code is BR3 1NR. |

Pavilion
|
Behind the bowlers arm on an
incline. A good view to watch the game.
The bar has two large screen TVs
but the drinks don't appear to be subsidised. A jug in 2006 cost £16-10p
! |
|
Changing Room
|
Under the pavilion. Spacious! Enough
to hold six teams.
A worrying aspect is being advised to take all
clothes and bags outside once changed. |
|
Showers
|
Excellent with over 20
showers, wash basins and even a foot massage facility. |
|
Tea |
Sandwiches, sausage rolls, cakes. A
remark was passed that the food had been run over with a pitch roller! |
|
Nearest Pub |
Ground is in a residential area.
None seen.
The Bar at the ground opens before the game and is open
throughout although the service can be very slow.
