Old Buckenham Hall is a cricket ground in Attleborough, Norfolk. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1912, when L. G. Robinson's XI played a first-class game against the touring South Africans. From 1912 to 1921, the ground hosted six first-class matches, the last of which saw Robinson's XI play the touring Australians. All first-class matches held at the ground had L. G. Robinson's XI as the home team although the match in May 1919 against the Australian Imperial Force Touring XI was twelve-a-side.[1]

The ground continues to be used to his day and in local domestic cricket is the home of Old Buckenham Cricket Club.[2]
