Queen’s Park, located in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England, is a county cricket ground set within a park established in 1887 for Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee. The ground features a quaint pavilion and is bordered by mature trees, creating a picturesque setting. Queen’s Park is the home of Chesterfield Cricket Club and was also the home of Derbyshire County Cricket Club for a century, from 1898 to 1998, before the county team made its return in 2006 after an eight-year absence.
Originally surrounded by a banked cycle track, the ground is relatively small and tends to dry slowly after rainfall, often resulting in a green wicket. However, on good wickets, the compact size of the ground promotes fast-scoring games.
