Maude Memorial Grounds
Station Road

These grounds were left to the town for use by sports teams in 1925 by Alderman F.W. Maude. Maude was President of New Romney's football and cricket clubs, and both still play matches here. There is also a croquet lawn. Hockey, however, is no longer played, and the old tennis courts were ploughed up during World War II.

The Romney Revels, an annual fun-fair, was held here until the sixties, and enjoyed a brief revival a few years later.
