A new duckpin bowling alley has officially launched in East Lancashire.

The first of its kind in the county, Boiler House Bowling, based in Clitheroe's Holmes Mill, opened on Saturday.

Lancashire Telegraph:

The new attraction, based in the old Boiler House, includes four duckpin bowling lanes, which are similar to tenpin bowling but the pins and bowling balls are smaller, the lanes are shorter, and there are lots of different games available to play.

Lancashire Telegraph:

Better still, there are no bowling shoes required for duckpin bowling making it perfect for girl's night, date night, kid parties and everything in between.

The bowling alley was launched on Saturday August 27 with the Mayor of Clitheroe, Cllr Stuart Hirst, cutting the red ribbon before guests enjoyed complimentary nibbles served to their lane, and music from a live DJ.

Lancashire Telegraph:

Located next to Bowland Beer Hall, the bowling alley serves a selection of burgers, buns and loaded fries.

There is a fully stocked bar available or guests can go through to the Beer Hall bar and try one of the many craft beers available.

Boiler House Bowling is open from 12pm until 8pm Monday to Friday, and 10am until 8pm on Saturday and Sunday.
