Clubs History
WESTBOROUGH BOWLS CLUB, which is situated in Allington,was first established in 1925, although in 1925 the club was known as the Cherry Orchard Bowls Club. The bowling green was in Cherry Orchard in Maidstone. When war broke out in 1939, bowling ceased for the duration of the war and the bowling green was dug up to provide allotments After the war [1945] members of the original club got back together to re-form the club once more, however, as their original green was now allotments, they had nowhere to bowl.
