  6. Question Does anyone have any old pics of North Meols Lawn Tennis Club?
    Started by Dookey 20/10/2001

    Just a thought, North Meols Ltc is in the grounds of Meols Hall. We know it's been there around 100 years but not sure exactly how long. It would be nice to locate any pics at all or any info about the club around the 1900's. :)
