John O'Ds Review Of
Reigate Priory
Main Ground: - Park Lane Reigate
www.reigatepriorycc.co.uk |
Location
|
St. Albans Road, Reigate.(1 mile
from top of Reigate Hill). Down hill turn right into Somers Road - before
level crossing - then right into St. Albans Road. Ground is on the
Left-hand side behind the hedge. Park in Street. |
Pavilion
|
Old, mainly wooden. Reminded me of
Oakwood Hill. |
|
Changing Room
|
On first visit, the changing room
resembled a Junior Gym! (Small bats - Marker Cones -Hurdles). Enough Room
though for the club kitbag. |
|
Showers
|
 Only two and Cold - 3 washbasins
nearby |
|
Tea |
Nicely set out in the entrance to
the pavilion with a good range of sandwiches and cakes. It was then a case
of eating your tea outside on the grass with the emphasis on musical
chairs! |
|
Nearest Pub
|
Yew Tree on Reigate Hill. Not very
busy on our first visit. Good selection of beers - London Pride, Spitfire,
Young's, J.Smith's, Foster's. House Doubles £2, Pimm's 1 Litre Jug £6.50.
Small Garden with waterfall feature.
