Lord Dubbington, have you ever played/watched at Old Buckenham?

It’s a lovely old ground, not on the green as one would expect, but in the grounds of the remains of an old hall. It’s surrounded by trees and has actually hosted Australia and South Africa in the 1920s. A lovely little oasis in south norfolk
