THE Bolton bowling scene has lost one of its most well known figures with the death of Bill Brockbank, aged 82.
He played for Moss Bank Park and Mere Hall Park in the Bolton and District League, the Bolton Mills League and the Bolton Parks Veterans League during a successful playing career which lasted for more than 35 years.
Keith Andrews, secretary of the Bolton Mills League, said: “He played for a long time and was well known by everyone in the Bolton leagues. Everyone loved him because he was a real character.”
