Former bowling green, Heaton Park, Newcastle upon Tyne
The site of the former bowling green in Heaton Park. The green closed due to council cutbacks in spending on parks and recreation areas in 2013. Until its closure the bowling club was the longest established in the city, having been established for well over a century. (link to local newspaper article: LinkExternal link )

NZ2665 : Heaton Park shows the bowling green in happier, and greener, times in 2008. The pavilion in the background is now an Italian restaurant.
