Meeting of the Worcestershire Archery Society in the Grounds of Lea Castle, Wolverley..., 1858. Creator: Unknown.

Meeting of the Worcestershire Archery Society in the Grounds of Lea Castle, Wolverley, near Kidderminster, 1858. Women shooting with bow and arrow. 'The targets, six pair in number, were pitched near the Castle. There were four pairs for members and two for visitors; and as the shooting proceeded it was watched with much interest by large numbers of the principal inhabitants of the district. Unfortunately, during the afternoon, rain fell twice, obliging the shooters to take shelter for about half an hour each time, but this delay only appeared to give additional zeal, and the sport recommenced again in right good earnest...At the conclusion, dancing commenced in the handsome tent, and was indulged in with much spirit until past dusk'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858.
