Elm Park & Hornchurch Bowling Club

Elm Park & Hornchurch Bowling Club, located in Hornchurch, is a thriving sports club with a rich history and a welcoming community of lawn bowls enthusiasts. Established in 1957, the club initially started as a men's club and later expanded to include a ladies' section in 1965.
