Westbury Blue Circle Bowls History

The Club was originally formed in 1970 as part of the Blue Circle Cement works Social Club, however this was later opened up for membership for non employees. The ladies section was later formed in 1987.

When the Cement works were sold to Larfarge, the bowls Club continued under the umbrella of the Social Club of the works. This changed in August 2009 when the whole complex was sold by Larfarge to the current Private Owners. The club then became self Funding. The club has had many successes over the years in both League and County competitions.
