FIELD GUIDE

The story

A giant cricket bat beside the ground, and a boundary fence made of ordinary ones.
The bat at Narrikup stands roughly eight to eight and a half metres, and it is accompanied by the community cricket-bat boundary fence – which is the more interesting half of the arrangement. A boundary marked out in bats, presumably contributed by players and families over time, turns the fence into a record of who has played there.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Fresh February 2026 specialist coverage confirms the giant bat remains at Narrikup Cricket Club; ABC reporting records its community origins and tourism role.
ACCESS
Public/community sports-ground landmark. Use normal Narrikup Cricket Club/oval parking and access; the catalogue retains locality precision until the ground-level exact position is independently reconciled.
