Bowling alley open
Thursday, 2nd December 1999.
An extension to Haverhill Snooker Club in Chalkstone Way was planned to allow eight tenpin bowling lanes to be built. Delstore, which runs the premises, has a similar operation in Newmarket.
Manager Hazel Pawley said the bowling side would operate in the same way as the snooker club, with members paying an annual subscription and non-members paying a £1 day fee at each visit.
Surveys in Haverhill over a number of years have revealed a bowling alley to be high on people's wish list, but previous plans have not gone ahead.
Snooker tables and bowling lanes can be booked on (01440) 707774.
