Cricket, anyone?


Of course a House of Parliament isn’t really complete without a cricket pitch and a lawn bowling green. So, back in the day, the parliamentarians built a pitch and bowling green among the rose gardens surrounding the (now former) Parliament building. It’s good to have sports facilities as top priorities, that and rose gardens! The cricket pitch is now gone and replaced with tennis courts. The roses are spectacular with hundreds of varieties that have been specially bred for the Australian climate.
