Westerham Common, also known as Westerham Heath, was a cricket ground near Westerham in west Kent. It was used primarily in the 18th century when historically significant matches were played.
In May 1730, a single wicket match between four men of Kent, captained by Edwin Stead, and four of Brentford was played for a wager of £50. This was the first game in what became a tri-series.[1] In June 1768, Westerham and Caterham, captained by Henry Rowett, played Bourne Cricket Club, captained by Sir Horatio Mann.[2] The Heath was used as a cricket venue occasionally in the 20th century.[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
