The Butts Ground was a cricket ground in Coventry, Warwickshire. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1872, when Coventry played a United South of England Eleven. The first county match held at the ground came in 1882 when Warwickshire played Staffordshire, although this match was not first-class.[1] Warwickshire used the ground for first-class cricket from 1925 to 1930, playing the final first-class match held at the ground against Hampshire.[2] The site is today occupied by buildings.
