We are delighted to see @prestoncouncil ensuring Listed Buildings in the City are repaired to preserve their heritage. This sets a very clear picture to all developers in our city of their responsibilities in owning Listed buildings. @thevicsoc @SAVEBrit @ScarisbrickRept – at Preston, England
Urgent repairs needed as Preston fight goes on for future of Freddie Flintoff's original field of dreams: lep.co.uk/heritage-and-retro…
ALT Every building on the site has problems with dry rot.
So sad seeing Freddie and his dad with the same hope as us of bring the cricket ground back to public use with one big hurdle in the way. 🏏 @flintoff11 @bbc #FieldOfDreams #saveharrispark – at North West, England
So sad that the field Freddie learnt to play on is now overgrown and locked away from public use. #saveharrispark 🏏 – at Preston, England
Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams - Freddie Flintoff is determined to prove that anyone can play cricket, whatever their background. @BBCOne Tuesday 5th July with #PostProduction from @filmsat59 @flintoff11

@thetimes @flintoff11 We’d love your support in trying to save Harris Park and the cricket ground from becoming a housing development. Preston is short of cricket pitches and it would be incredible to see children and adults enjoying the game there once more 🏏. #saveharrispark

Most of my Saturday afternoons in the summer were spent here as a child. Watching my Dad play cricket for Dutton Forshaws/Harris Park. Would be so sad to see it redeveloped, as its a fantastic pitch, set in lovely surroundings.

It’s so sad that the field where Freddie learnt to play is the subject of a Planning Application to develop houses. Local people would love to see the pitch back in use and enjoyed by everyone again. #saveharrispark #grassroots @prestoncouncil @GrahamLiver @Sport_England – at Preston, England
Well done, Ammar. 👊
And well done, @flintoff11. 👏
