Just SW of Green Lane lies a medieval moat dating back to at least 1766—possibly older! While the club stands on newer history, our community is surrounded by layers of the past.

Could one of our snooker playing members befriend Vera? 🤩

Know anyone who watches snooker? Vera, 94, has a great sense of humour and a lifelong love of snooker. Her friends have now passed away, so she'd like to have someone who could watch the occasional game with her on TV. To spend time with this fun lady, DM us or contact [email protected] today 😄

🚶‍♂️ Walk down history lane—literally!

Green Lane was once a long thoroughfare linked by a subway under the A45 built in the 1970s. From its roots lining wartime routes to its vibrant present, our club remains a community landmark.
