WELCOME TO

KINGS NEWTON BOWLS CLUB

ABOUT US

Founded in 1982, Kings Newton Bowls Club is situated on the edge of the historic market town of Melbourne in the heart of South Derbyshire.

We’re a friendly, well-established crown green bowls club with a growing base of over 100 members, with nine teams participating in South Derbyshire, Belper and Burton leagues alongside regular inter-club competitions and social bowling sessions.

The club holds regular social and fundraising events throughout the year. Some say we’ve got the best beer garden for miles – but don’t just take our word for it! Our clubhouse bar is open to all, with locally brewed Tollgate Brewery ales on draught and a full range of competitively-priced bottled beers, ciders, wines and spirits.

New to the club? Enjoy your first visit on us. Join us for a Sunday afternoon open session and one of our friendly members will be happy to show you the ropes.

A friendly club with lovely people and great real ale

“The green is one of the best and the surrounding gardens are beautiful. I have never been made more welcome than the first time I went there.”

Steve

★★★★

A lovely location off the edge of Melbourne

“A great place just to sit on a bench on a Sunday morning when the sun is shining. A better place to sit on a Sunday afternoon when the bar is open and you can enjoy a great beer.”
