Centenary of Sandgate Bowls ClubPrint Page
The gate was refurbished by the Dyer Family to commemorate the centenary of Sandgate Bowls Club in 2014.
Originally the gate was erected in 1938, and called the Dyer Memorial Gate, to commemorate Mr Edward Dyer, who was one of the founding members of the Sandgate Bowls Club and President at the time of his death in February 1938.
This evening a large meeting of gentlemen interested in the formation of bowling green in Sandgate was held in the mayor's room (our Sandgate correspondent advised last night). The mayor (Alderman J. Lunn) presided. It iss understood that the scheme includes the laying down of courts on the reserve near the Convent. Debentures to the value of £I05 were taken up in the room.
