Home to Findon Cricket Club since 1867 when it was donated by a local landowner. The pitch is built on a slope and initially took six years to level into a decent playing surface leaving a large bank behind the pavilion to the left. To the right is a small camping area. The name of the ground derives from a set of kennels once owned by nearby Findon Place that lie beyond the trees to the right.
