Stairwell Exhibition: Crabble Athletic Ground

In January 1896, four businessmen formed a syndicate named Dover Athletic Ground Ltd, with a plan to create a cricket ground and cycling track.

Frederick Finnis, Henry Hayward, Alfred Charles Leney and James Stilwell purchased a total of 42 acres for £11,100 - this would become the foundation of Crabble Athletic Ground as it stands today.
