Crown Paints Bowling Club

Bowling green in good condition. Good host's. Nice set up. Off road parking. Nice little club house with toilets and brew making equipment. Look forward to going again.

Crown Paints Bowling Club is found along the right hand side of Anchor Road, which is off the A666 Blackburn road. Parking is a little difficult on a match day. The green is of a moderate size with enough of its anomalies to keep even the most seasoned player on their toes. Just played here this afternoon in temperatues close on 90 degrees and as it has been like this for the past week, the green was scorchingly fast! Get within a metre of the edge and you're collecting your bowls from the gutter most times. Nice new facilities added recently, courtesy of the National Lottery. Crown Paints don't actually sponsor this club and so it's good they have a secretary and Treasurer who knows his way around. In more ways than one! He gave me my first and only ever complete defeat to nil!
