A local cricket club has appealed for information after their pavilion was set ablaze and destroyed on Thursday night.
Monkswood Cricket Club near Usk posted videos of a fire at their Glascoed Lane home, blaming the "devastating" incident on arsonists.
"We are completely shocked that someone would want to do this," the club posted on X, formerly know as Twitter.
"However, we will not be beaten by this and are determined that we will play cricket at the ground in 2024."
In a later post, the club said: "A devastating last 24 hours for the club. Posting these videos/photos to give people an idea of the scale of the damage.
"Please RT and spread the word. Any information, please come forward to the police or directly to the club.
"We would also like to place on record our sincerest thanks to the fire service and Gwent Police.
