Ellerman Lines Cricket Ground was a cricket ground in Hoylake, Cheshire. The ground was owned and operated by Ellerman Lines, a now defunct shipping company. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1957, when Cheshire played Northumberland in the Minor Counties Championship. Cheshire used the ground from 1957–1968, playing 44 Minor Counties Championship matches at the ground during that time, the last of which was between Cheshire and the Yorkshire Second XI.[1]
The ground also hosted a single List-A match between Cheshire and Surrey in the 1964 Gillette Cup.[2]
