Cleadon Park Bowling Club

HER Description

NEHL - A bowling green was located at Cleadon Park from 1944 until the 2010s, having to relocate elsewhere.

It was opened by the Chief Constable of South Shields, Mr T B Humphrey, in April of that year, introduced by the chairman Mr S Porteus. The green featured its own small pavilion as well as potentially a tennis court on the south end. It was called the "Club Hut".

According to this piece (https://www.shieldsgazette.com/news/bowlers-voice-fears-over-sports-future-in-south-tyneside-302659), the club has had to relocate unrelated to funding issues.
