History
In 1925 Mr Treffry gave a field to the Fowey Borough Council for use as a recreational field, when it became known as Squires Field.
It has been used since before the war as the football pitch for Fowey Town and has housed over the years tennis courts, putting green and children’s play equipment.
It is currently a football pitch and pavilion, a community centre and a modern children’s play area.
The old bowling club is now owned by Fowey Town council and leased to Squires Field Community Centre CIC . the directors and committee members are all volunteers who maintain the upkeep of the building and grounds with money raised through the hire of the centre, donations and grants.
