- Bowling was a favorite pastime with young boys long ago
The young men of the parish would gather at some cross-roads or some publick house and stay there from 7 in evening till 10 at night Bowling and pitching and playing other games. The game would be started to know which crowd would pay for a drink for all the rest. Every two or three were against every two or three.
