King's House Sports Ground (formally known as the Civil Service Sports Ground) is a multi-use sports ground in Chiswick, London. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1926, when the Civil Service cricket team played Australia in a non first-class match.[1] The following year, the ground held its only first-class match when the Civil Service played the touring New Zealanders.[2] This match was also the Civil Service's only appearance in first-class cricket.

The ground held a single Second XI Championship match in 1973 when the Middlesex Second XI played the Kent Second XI.[3]

During the 1993 Women's Cricket World Cup, the ground held its only Women's One Day International when New Zealand women played the West Indies.[4]
