Kent Cricket Club. A Meeting held at the Council Chamber, Friday the 30th of March, inst. Canterbury: Ward, [1849]. Broadside (340 x 215mm). (Old fold lines, small nicks at edges.)
Broadside concerning the outcome of a key meeting about the future of the Kent Club, with Thomas Wilkinson, Mayor of Canterbury, in the chair. The Kent Club had originally been formed in August 1842 when the Beverley Club was reconstituted. An earlier attempt to form a county club had been made in 1835 based around Town Malling. However, Canterbury was the more obvious centre and, as can be seen from this important historical broadside, the city was keen to have the county club based within its boundaries. Of the three resolutions ‘unanimously agreed to,’ the most important concerned the continuing link between the club and the city; however, ‘Gentlemen of the County and the City’ were to form ‘a union’ in order to raise ‘a larger amount of subscriptions’.
