Parklea Pavilion, home to Parklea Bowling Club, was the main building in King George V Park. Some Woodhall residents were evacuated here during the war following bomb damage to their houses during the 1941 blitz which resulted in thirty deaths in nearby Woodhall Terrace. The tennis courts, putting green and swingpark are long gone, under the re-aligned A8 road, but the bowling club and the adjacent football pitches still thrive.
