Some Come to Bowl
...... View from Phear Park Clubhouse

........ Others Just Admire the View
Exmouth is situated in East
Devon on the western edge of the worldwide heritage site, the Jurassic
Coast. Devon's
bowls heritage goes back centuries, after all, Francis Drake wasn't
playing polo when the Spanish Armada was sighted was he?! Bowling
history in Exmouth does not go back that far but a bowls club was opened in Phear Park in 1911 and is the oldest club in Exmouth.
Phear Park Bowling Club is one of a dozen
bowling clubs either in, or within a 45 minute drive of Exmouth. An
ideal centre for a bowling tour over a weekend or longer.
If your bowls club is
thinking of touring Devon why not put Phear Park on your itinerary.
You will be assured of a warm welcome from
a club recognised as one of the friendliest in East Devon - and even a
cream tea should you request it.
