Haverford

Merion Cricket Club is a private club in Haverford, Pennsylvania, founded in 1865. The current clubhouse is its sixth, the last four having been... designed by Philadelphia architect Frank Furness and his partner, Allen Evans . The club was founded in October 1865 by William Montgomery and Marshall Ewing, and its first meeting held December 16, 1865. While there was some thought of converting into a baseball club due to a lack of a permanent facility, its first cricket match was held in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, May 19, 1866. From 1873 to 1892, the club occupied grounds in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, before moving to its present grounds in Haverford. The first tennis match was held in 1881; the first golf course was laid out in 1896, with other courses in 1912 and 1914. The first clubhouse was an existing house in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, on land owned by Col. Owen Jones. The second was an industrial building in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, about a mile southeast of the current grounds. The third , by Furness & Evans, on Cricket Avenue in Ardmore, was destroyed by fire in 1892.
