Walworth Common in Surrey was a venue for first-class cricket matches in 1730 and 1732.[1][2][3] There are no records of matches on the common after 1732 but a later venue in the area was Aram's New Ground, the home of Montpelier Cricket Club which was used for first-class matches from 1796 to 1806.
