"This ancient pastime of Lawn Billiards dates back 500 years. These balls
are made of hard wood - weighing nine pounds each - A clearance of only
1/8 of an inch is left when passing through the ring". At one end of a
small circular lawn men toss large wooden balls by means of a stick with
a metal hoop, aiming to pass them through a ring in the centre of the lawn.
Various shots of match in progress - scores are made by direct shots or by
knocking one ball against another. Seated ladies watch.
