Lewes Bowls Club

From its first days the Club played on a three rink green owned by Lewes Town Council in what are now known as the Priory Grounds. The Council also provided a pavilion with lockers for members' equipment. In due course the Council provided a pavilion beside the new green and by 1933 this proved to be insufficient for the Club and was extended with half the costs met by the Club.

To inform members on repair work to the Green, please see the information given below, in messages from the Chairman to bowls committee members. Despite a great deal of work being carried out on the Green during August, the infestation of leatherjackets has still not been completely resolved. The contractor has advised that much of September will still be needed to continue the treatment and that this may well carry on into the Autumn.

Bowls has been played in this delightful setting in an atmosphere of friendly fun since 1922. We have a modern Club House with good changing facilities for both men and women, a dining area and a well-stocked bar which sells drinks at low, club rates. We are a mixed club that welcomes players of all abilities and ages.

After a whole season without playing bowls, it was great to have some members back on the green again for our Opening Drive, which had been delayed from April. Members obviously took the necessary precautions to ensure all were safe while playing. Lewes Players confirm availability by signing Team Sheet at least two days before match day.

There is a car park close to our ground, but sadly, this is often full on Fixture days. However, we have arranged with Lewes College, to use their car park, so see the following directions.
