Fenner's is Cambridge University Cricket Club's ground.

In 1846, Francis Fenner leased a former cherry orchard from Gonville and Caius College for the purpose of constructing a cricket ground.

[1][2] In 1848 he sub-let the ground to Cambridge University Cricket Club.

[4] A 40-foot wooden pavilion, painted blue, with a slated roof had been erected by the 1856 season.

The groundsman pioneered the art of mowing grass in strips to create patterns, a technique now common in sports stadiums around the world.
