Description

The North London Bowling Club was formed in 1891 after members of a Camden club moved to a site near Parliament Hill Fields. It is perhaps the oldest surviving club green in London. The pavilion was built in 1910. This photograph was published on page 149 of 'Bowled Over: The bowling greens of Britain' by Hugh Hornby.
