New build

A very extensive group of buildings has been erected during the past year at Kennington Oval, comprising a new cricket pavilion and a tavern connected with the grounds. The cost has been between thirty and forty thousand pounds. Messrs. Muirhead and Baldwin, of Manchester, are the architects. We illustrate to‑day the new tavern from a photograph by Messrs James Mudd and Son, and supplied us by the architects. We shall at an early date give an illustration of the pavilion, when we hope to print some further particulars of this important and interesting undertaking. [Building News 2 December 1898 p785]

We published a view of the new tavern, which has just been completed at the Oval, in the Building News for December 2nd, and to‑day we give a view of the cricket pavilion. The whole undertaking has been carried out at a cost of between £30,000 and £40,000. Messrs. Muirhead and Baldwin, of Manchester, are the architects. Messrs. James Mudd and Sons took the photograph which we have reproduced. [Building News 16 December 1898 p859]
