The club was formed
in 1934 and has provided playing facilities for bowlers of all levels.
Initially the green consisted of 4 rinks however, with lottery funding
two additional rinks were laid during 96/97 and on the 4th June 1997 the
six rink green was officially opened by international player Gary Smith.
More recently smart walls, seating and slab walkways have enhanced the
surrounds.
