Asset of Community Value status extended

Our historic cricket pavilion has been further protected. Merton Council has agreed to extend the Asset of Community Value (AOCV) status which we first received in 2014.

This status means that the local community will be informed if the pavilion is listed for sale, and a moratorium will allow the community to bid for the site.

This important status for the pavilion, which was the first building to be listed as an AOCV in the borough of Merton, provides further reassurance about the future of the club, and the future of cricket on our ancient green.

In the meantime dialogue with the owner of the freehold continues.

The club would like to thank Merton Council, Mitcham Cricket Green Community and Heritage, our members, our neighbours and the world of cricket for their continued support.
