The Surrey History Centre has authenticated a 18th Century diary entry
referring to a William Bray playing Baseball on Easter Monday
1755 - the earliest known manuscript reference to baseball in the world.
Interestingly, Guildford is also credited with being the first recorded place of
a form of cricket, known as kreckett - see the cricket section for details. |
