Bray is near Maidenhead and the ground was the home venue of when it was founded in the second half of the 18th century. It was used for first-class matches by the Berkshire county team which was very strong at that time.
The name of the venue has also been given as "Old Field, Bray"[3] but the designation "Oldfield Bray" is given by Scores and Biographies which also calls the Berkshire team "Oldfield" in one match.[1]
