EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a significant moment in the history of Glamorgan County Cricket Club. It captures the spirit of celebration and camaraderie as members of both Cardiff and Nomads cricket teams come together to bid farewell to cricket at the iconic Cardiff Arms Park ground. The date is 17th September 1966, a day etched in the memories of all those present. In this image, we witness an extraordinary scene unfold before our eyes - a bonfire blazing brightly against the night sky, illuminating the faces filled with joy and nostalgia. Amidst this fiery spectacle, wickets are being burned symbolically by players representing both teams. This act serves as a poignant tribute to countless hours spent on these hallowed grounds, where dreams were forged and victories celebrated. The significance of this event extends beyond just sport; it represents an era coming to an end. As we delve into this snapshot from the 1960s, we can't help but feel a sense of reverence for rugby's imminent takeover at Cardiff Arms Park. Yet amidst change and progress, there is always room for reflection on cherished memories that will forever be intertwined with these historic walls. Mirrorpix has expertly captured not only the visual essence but also the emotional weight behind this photograph. It transports us back in time, allowing us to relive moments that shaped sporting culture in Wales during one fateful evening in September 1966.
