Nan’s mound [1] is a heritage site within Knowle, Solihull, West Midlands in the UK.
The site is a historical area of significance offering great views of the local cricket club - Knowle Village Cricket Club (https://knowlevillage.play-cricket.com/home).
The story of its conception dates back many thousands of years although its specific origins remain largely unknown and are beholden to stories of folklore and legend. Over time the mound had become eroded and depleted as a result of natural erosion and weathering.
However, it was restored to its former glories when during the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020 and the ensuing lockdown a group of local mound enthusiasts, led by Andy Richmond and Alex Bleby, decided that with no cricket being played or any other activity to pursue during a period of great challenge that they would reinstate the once world famous mound through a socially-distanced outdoor activity that was permitted at the time.
Word grew of the reinstatement of the mound and soon there were many collaborators who helped to get the mound back to its former glories with a layer of topsoil and grass seed being placed on the top in order to create a raised picnic and viewing area with spectacular views of the cricket club onto which it adjoins.
