North Marine Road Ground serves as the home venue for Scarborough Cricket Club, nestled in the picturesque seaside town of Scarborough, North Yorkshire. This charming ground has been a cornerstone of local cricket for generations, offering players and spectators alike stunning views of the nearby coastline and the town's distinctive landscape.
