There has been a pub called The Cricketers at the head of St Peter's Street, where it divides into Harpenden Road and Stonecross, since the late 19th century, although beer had been sold on the site from at least the middle of that century. The name reflected the former cricket ground on Bernard's Heath, to the north of here. The present building dates from the 1938 and remained in use as a pub until 2005, when it was converted to an Indian Restaurant, called Devdas, but the cricketers sign remains above the front door. It is locally listed.
