Monument record TR 34 SW 2164 - Former site of a Bowling Green and garden, Dieu Stone Lane, Dover

Summary

A bowling green is visible at this location on a number of historic maps dating to the early 20th century. It is likely that this bowling green was constructed in the first few years of the 20th century though its use is likely to have been short lived as a year later the Dover Institute Bowling Club (DIBC) was formed and which had exclusive use of the Maison Dieu Gardens Green nearby.
