Kirkby Road is a cricket ground in Barwell, Leicestershire.

Cricket in Barwell dates to 1807,[1] with cricket being played at Kirkby Road since at least 1913.

First-class cricket has been played there three times in 1946 and 1947, with Leicestershire playing Lancashire and Warwickshire in the 1946 County Championship and Worcestershire in the 1947 County Championship.

[2] Over half a century later in 2001, major cricket returned to the ground when it played host to a List A one-day match between the Leicestershire Cricket Board (LCB) and the Northamptonshire Cricket Board in the Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy,[3] which was won by the LCB, with their captain Neil Pullen scoring 88.
