Professional crown green mower servicing and repair for Royton Bowling Club. 9 miles from our Hyde workshop. Serving clubs in the Oldham & District Crown Green Bowling League.
About Royton Bowling Club
Royton Bowling Club sits on the hillside above Oldham, where the exposed position brings good air circulation and natural drainage but also more wind and rain than sheltered clubs in the valley below. The crown green is maintained by dedicated volunteers who keep the surface in excellent condition despite the challenging weather. The nine-mile distance to PGT Repairs is straightforward via the A627M, and the club schedules regular blade sharpening to cope with the tougher grass that grows in the hillside conditions.
The green's position on the Oldham hillside gives it good natural drainage but exposes it to stronger winds. Equipment must be robust enough to handle the more demanding conditions.
Crown Green Maintenance Requirements
Crown greens demand a cylinder mower that can follow the contour of the crown — the raised centre that gives these greens their name. The mower must cut at a consistent 4-6mm height while navigating the subtle slopes, requiring precise blade adjustment and a well-maintained roller mechanism.
Crown green maintenance is as much about understanding the contours as it is about mowing. The crown must be maintained at a consistent gradient — any deviation creates bias that affects play. This means the mower setup must be exact, and any wear in the height adjustment mechanism needs prompt attention.
