DESECRATION OF THE BOWLING GREENS

DESECRATION OF THE BOWLING GREENS

Bowling Green

One of those attending last night’s INWAC meeting, told me that the night before, he saw a group of people having a barbeque on one of the bowling greens. When he went up to them and told them that barbeques are illegal in the park, they said that they hadn’t realised, and they stopped what they were doing.

It was only a question of time before this happened. Everyone, apart from our councillors could see it coming.

The Moor’s first bowling green was opened in May 1906, by the Lord Mayor of Leeds, Mr Edwin Woodhouse. I wonder what he’d have made of councillors who regard the destruction of the Moor as just people “having fun”.
