It is divided into the Ynysangharad Park cricket ground and the public Ynysangharad War Memorial Park. Ynysangharad Park cricket groundThe ground was first established in 1870, but the first recorded match on the ground was in 1924, when Glamorgan played their first first-class match there against Derbyshire. Glamorgan played 43 first-class matches at the ground between 1926 and 1996, playing their final first-class match there against the Pakistanis during their tour of England.[1] The ground has also held List-A matches. The first List-A match came in the 1970 John Player League between Glamorgan and Essex. Between 1970 and 1999, the ground played host to 9 List-A matches, the last of which saw Glamorgan play Surrey in the 1999 National League.[2] As well as hosting first-class and List-A cricket, the ground has also held Minor counties matches for Wales Minor Counties. Their first match at the ground came in the 1995 Minor Counties Championship against Oxfordshire. Wales Minor Counties played 5 matches there in the Minor Counties Championship between 1995 and 2004, the last of which saw them play Devon.[3] In local domestic cricket, the ground is the home venue of Pontypridd Cricket Club.[4] Ynysangharad War Memorial ParkThe park, created in 1923, offers a number of facilities, such as a pitch and putt golf course, bowling greens, football, cricket pitches and tennis courts, bandstand and refreshment kiosks. The lido is being renovated. Within the park are a pair of memorial statues by Goscombe John, erected in 1930 to commemorate Evan and James James, the father and son composers of the Welsh National Anthem Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau (Land of my Fathers). The grave slab of Evan James was also moved here from Carmel Chapel when that chapel was demolished. The memorial is Grade II* listed [5] {{clear}}References1. ^[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/90/696_f.html First-Class Matches played on Ynysangharad Park] 2. ^[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/90/696_a.html List-A Matches played on Ynysangharad Park] 3. ^[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/90/696_minc.html Minor Counties Championship Matches played on Ynysangharad Park] 4. ^Pontypridd Cricket Club 5. ^ {{cite web|url= http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-24841-memorial-to-evan-and-james-james-at-ynysa| title= Memorial to Evan and James James at Ynysangharad Park, Pontypridd|publisher= British Listed Buildings|accessdate = 21 July 2015}} External links
