Vista Road Recreation Ground is a cricket ground in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex. Its first recorded first-class cricket match was in 1931 when Essex County Cricket Club played there against Lancashire. Essex played a total of 60 first-class matches on the ground between 1931 and 1966, playing their final first-class match there versus Leicestershire in the 1966 County Championship.[1]

Vista Road has also held five Second XI fixtures between 1948 and 1952 for the Essex 2nd XI in the Minor Counties Championship.[2]

In local cricket, the ground hosts Clacton Cricket Club,[3] of which Nigel Farage is a supporter.[4]
