There was a time when no self-respecting school or club would be without one of these – and sometimes 2 or 3.
Nowadays they seem to be quite rare and to have faded into the background to be replaced by a variety of nets and rebound catching frames. The odd one turns up hiding in the long grass.
The good news is that the original hand-made cradle is still available – a craftsman built treasure put together from a small workshop hidden away deep amongst the strawberry fields of Herefordshire.
