Fearnley has been the bat of choice for the world's best batters, from different countries, for years.
Duncan Fearnley traces its roots back to 1955 when a budding young cricketer, Duncan Fearnley began his trade as an apprentice with Senior Counties Bat Makers in Yorkshire.
Duncan, born in the cricket hotbed of Pudsey, Yorkshire was one of the youngest players to play Bradford League at 15 for Farsley.
His father was a woodwork teacher and his grandfather a cabinet maker, working with the grandfather of ex England Captain Raymond Illingworth, so it seemed destined that the young Yorkshire Cricketer would also follow a woodworking career. In 1955 Fearnley had just played for England Schoolboys and hoped for a career in professional cricket, but during the winter months had to supplement his income.
Fearnley decided he wanted to make bats and within the boundaries of Yorkshire there were many small batmakers.
