Down & West 12a; 14c; 14b, pp. 128, 130. So closely was James Henry Dark (1795-1871), the son of an Edgware Road saddler, associated with Lord's Ground, the lease of which he purchased from William Ward in 1835, that during his thirty years' management the ground was often called not "Lord's" but "Dark's." When Dark retired in 1864, the remainder of the lease was sold to the Marylebone Club who then acquired the freehold. Joseph Guy (1814-73) and George Parr (1826-91) both played for Nottinghamshire and the All England Eleven, the latter establishing himself as "the premier professional batsman of England."
