The new pavilion at the Arms Park was used for the first time during the 1904 season. Its elaborate design matched the grandiose dreams of Glamorgan, with two turrets as well as other castellated effects, flanking a raised balcony plus a seating area below. Also incorporated was a spacious gymnasium – frequented presumably by the burly rugby players rather than the gentlemen cricketers – whilst at the rear, there were stables for the groundsman’s horses.
On match days, access to the new pavilion was confined to Glamorgan members, but the Club’s officials also introduced a new category of membership aimed at junior members. Known as Holiday Tickets, this ten-shilling package allowed under eighteens from mid-summer to join older gentlemen within the pavilion as well as using the practice nets.
On the field, Glamorgan were handicapped by an injury to Jack Brain, but Norman Riches, the young batter from Cardiff CC had a decent season, scoring 183 against Monmouthshire at Swansea as Glamorgan inflicted a heavy innings defeat against their neighbours. Berkshire were defeated at the Arms Park by four wickets, whilst there were home and away successes over Devon, with Jack Nash taking 6/53 in the first innings at St. Helen’s, and Harry Creber 6/77 in the second.
