Hoddesdon Bowls Club (Rosehill) is in an easy to reach area, at its current location since 1936. Many of our members come here from Hoddesdon, Broxbourne, and Nazeing. We also have members who come from further afield from Cheshunt, Enfield, Hertford, Ware, Stanstead Abbotts and Bishops Stortford who find it worth travelling that extra distance to join in our friendly atmosphere.
