History

  1. Holmfirth & District Bowling Club (HDBC) was established at its Bridge Fold premises in 1898 as a member only organisation for people looking to undertake both social and competitive crown green bowls. The Club owns both the land and the adjacent car park. The Club operates entirely through the voluntary efforts of its members, some of whom are also Trustees and/or serve on the organising Committee.

    Throughout its 120-year history the Club has been proud of its heritage and strong financial management. Income is generated entirely through membership subscriptions, refreshment sales and other fundraising activities. We became a Registered Charity in 2014.
