The scoreboard on the eastern side of the County Ground, seen from the square, at lunch on Day 1 of the Sussex-Notts game. Sussex had reached 105-2 (Chris Nash 63 not out, Murray Goodwin 0 not out) and were later bowled out for 304, winning comfortably, by 9 wickets, on the third day after forcing the County Champions to follow on on Day 2. The pronounced north-south slope of the ground shows clearly.
