More about this scene
Bowls has long been a popular game in Lancashire, and there is considerable rivalry between the many clubs of its towns, villages and pubs. Known from the 13th century, bowling passed into history with the tradition that Sir Frances Drake played the game at Plymouth Hoe whilst watching the approach of the Spanish Armada.
