The last standing grave in St Peters is for John Small and his family. He is remembered at the Petersfield Museum and Art Gallery and Lords.

John was one of the greatest cricketers of the eighteenth century and, according to The Times, of all time and deserves, says local historian Bill Gosney, to be counted amongst Petersfield’s first sons and remembered as a superstar.

Bill, who is providing a series for Shine Radio about surprising aspects of Petersfield's history, spoke to Mike Waddington.
