TAVISTOCK Sir Francis Drake Bowling Club have opened their new toilet facilities which are directly connected to the new extension.

Club chairman Tony Smith said that the club had raised the funding for the new build from various sources and would like to thank the Big Lottery Awards for All, Devon County Council, West Devon Borough Council and Tavistock Town Council for providing grant money.

The club also raised money and club members helped to put the finishing touches to a very modern building which also has disabled facilities for players and visitors.

It will now be available for the short mat bowling section of the club and for club social functions.
