About Us

Parliament Hill Bowls Club is a members club that offers lawn bowling facilities for all ages and skill levels.

Our club is located on the beautiful Hampstead Heath in North London, offering a wonderful atmosphere for our members to enjoy.

 

Established in post-war London on Parliament Hill Fields, which was being utilized as allotments and cattle grazing land at the time, our club boasts a rich history and tradition of lawn bowling. Hampstead Heath, an amalgamation of several large estates, was acquired for public use in 1875. Parliament Hill was later incorporated into the Heath in 1888. Since 1989, the Heath has been under the management of the Corporation of London.

 

Our club's mission is to provide a welcoming environment for members to connect with each other and enjoy the game of lawn bowling. Come and be a part of our community today!
