In 1929 the third public house to have the
name of the “Black Horse” was constructed
and
it still stands today.
The bowling green at the rear originates
from 1924 and was originally a flat green,
Workers from the local factories like the Austin
and Cadbury’s met for a well earned
pint and
a game of bowls after work and the Black Horse bowling club was formed.
Over the next few years the local workers
needed more of a challenge and decided
to
enter a team into one of the Crown Green
bowling leagues.
In the mid 1980’s the club had a membership of around 70 bowlers of all ages and
it was around this time that it was decided to add a crown to the green to make it
more challenging. And due to the high number of members, the club entered a number
of different leagues within the area
these being:-
Warwick & Worcester, Northfield & District,
Yardley Wood District, and the Heart of
England
Friendly. The clubs still plays an active role in all these league today.
In July 2010 the bowling club under went a
transformation, when the pub was bought
and renovated by J D Wetherspoon and we were also awarded for a “Awards
for All” grant from The Big Lottery Fund.
We can now offer a great club atmosphere for our membership along with social and community events. We have several teams and during the spring and summer you can enjoy a game of bowls most day
We always welcome new members, so why not come down and speak to us about joining
our club and help get our membership back to what
it was in the mid 1980’s or better.
We have been asked to help Wetherspoon's with community activities and also to raise money for their nominated Charity “Clic Sargeant”, so please help us out and attend our fundraising and community based events.
