The bowling green is situated in the South East corner of the village. It was difficult to find a place for it since the ground needed to be completely flat and most of the village was built on an incline.
Sadly yes, the Bowling Green will be removed and the land used for residential housing. At the very least whoever lives in these houses will enjoy a very flat back garden.
