Quoits

A quoits pitch was created on land north of the bowling green in the winter of 1906-7. It was officially opened by Councillor Walter Thomas at 2.30 on Saturday11th May 1907.[1]

This game never proved popular in parks and in the year 1908/1909 the income from quoits in Splott Park was only fourpence. Pettigrew observed that it was not played after 1915.[2]
