Charles Yelland, Ed. 1995. The History of the Harehills Park Bowling Club 1906 to 1994. Leeds: Edwin M. Harmer for Gipton History Group.

A marvellous book, but unfortunately I’ve been unable to date any of the anecdotes, of which my favourite is Ivy Newsome in the final of the Rose Bowl competition at Armley Liberal Club. Reproduction by kind permission of the author’s sons. Get it: All sources.
