We are lucky to have an excellent facility at Danesfield School, Williton, where we shoot on the playing fields during the summer and in the school gym during the winter season.

We welcome you, whether you are new to archery or an experienced archer.

For members and guest archers, we run a booking system for our archery sessions.

We shoot several days a week with archers of all abilities, from absolute novices to competition archers.
