White Conduit Fields in Islington was an early venue of major cricket matches and the original home of the White Conduit Club, forerunner of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). It was adjacent to White Conduit House, which was immediately south of the modern junction between Dewey Street and Barnsbury Road. ==Early matches== The earliest match known to have been played at White Conduit Fields was the controversial encounter on 1 September 1718 between London Cricket Club and the so-called Rochester Punch Club. This game provoked a legal case when the Rochester players walked off in an attempt to save their stake money, London clearly winning at the time. The case focused on the terms of the wager rather than the rules of the sport and the judge ordered the game to be played out. It was concluded in July 1719 and London won by 21 runs.〔Waghorn, p. 5.〕
