Bound by Aybrook, Moxon, Cramer and St. Vincent Streets, Marylebone Square is reintroducing a long-lost local street pattern to the area. MARYLEBONE SQUARE INTRODUCTION A Rare London Find What is it about Marylebone? Perhaps it’s the elegance of its architecture and the charm of its boutiques and eateries – or the surprising tranquillity of its tree-lined streets, a world away from the bustle of nearby Oxford Street. In the end, it might be the sense of community and leisurely pace of life that sets this neighbourhood apart. As the city buzzes with its busy schedules, Marylebone takes its time – savouring sit-down coffees in local cafés and loungy lunches in the park. It’s easy to forget you’re just a short stroll away from transport hubs, tourist attractions and all the trappings of big city life. As you find yourself “Marylebone Square idling around the shops on chic Chiltern Street, exchanging hellos with the butcher at the Ginger Pig or sunbathing in a quiet corner of Paddington Square is a collection Gardens, you quickly realise that this is a place where people actually live – of 54 high-end not just commute to, pass through, or visit for a few hours a day.

    OUR IMPACT 2018/2019 ENHANCING LIVES THROUGH CRICKET Thank You From Our Chairman The last eighteen months – from April 2018 when we launched our Friends fundraising scheme, to the summer of 2019 when we saw, for the first time, Hub cricketers take on MCC teams across the UK – have been momentous for the MCC Foundation. We ran 50 Hubs over 2018/19 and will expand to 54 in 2019/20; we held our first Activation Day during a Test Match at Lord’s, raising our profile amongst English and Irish fans; we broke the world record for the longest indoor cricket match; and we funded a totally new cricket league for state- educated secondary school students in Westminster. This year has also seen more people than ever before join our community of supporters. Your generosity and enthusiasm has enabled us to be more ambitious in our remit, and build sustainable plans for the future. I would particularly like to thank our Benefactors, whose generosity has totally transformed the impact we are able to make. Looking to the future, we will focus on ensuring our Hubs target areas of greatest need and, in addition to continuing to provide opportunities for people across the UK, we want to deliver projects overseas. I hope that, in reading this, you will be proud of the good work we have achieved together. With best wishes, Phillip Hodson The Hubs provided 2,6002,600 HOURSHOURS of coaching & match play The MCC Foundation Cricket Hubs 2018/19 has been another successful year for our cricket 81% of participants said the Hub Hubs, and we are delighted to be in a position to expand improved their tactical and enhance the programme next year.

    Journal of the Melbourne Cricket Club Library Issue 40, Summer 2009 This Issue From our Summer 2009/10 edition Ken Williams looks at the fi rst Pakistan tour of Australia, 45 years ago. We also pay tribute to Richie Benaud's role in cricket, as he undertakes his last Test series of ball-by-ball commentary and wish him luck in his future endeavours in the cricket media.
