Walkington Bowling Club History:
Walkington Bowling Club was formed on 31st January 1977 on land leased from the Sherwood Charity (now Sherwood & Waudby Charity).

Funds to complete the laying of the green were provided by the Playing Field committee.

In 1977 the annual fees to play bowls were £6 per person.

Funds for subsequent work to build the original clubhouse and two further extensions were raised through the Playing Field committee and the Bowling Club committee.
