Solihull - The Missing Bowls of King Henry VIII
For centuries, Solihull has been home to the oldest bowling green in England. Many great matches have been played here, but none more infamous than when the volatile King Henry VIII lost to a local lord. In a fit of temper, he ordered his servants to bury his bowls, claiming they were cursed. Now, it's up to YOU, our bravest and boldest adventurers, to find the missing bowls and restore peace to Solihull!
Trail of Clues Through Solihull
Legend has it that a trail of clues has been left behind, leading to the hiding place of the King's bowls. But beware, many daring explorers have attempted to follow it before, only to return empty-handed with tales of misfortune and booby traps. But fear not, dear adventurers, for we at Explorer HQ have conducted thorough research and will be with you every step of the way!
As you journey through Solihull, you'll uncover sneaky clues hidden in historic buildings, permanent features, and intriguing monuments. From the bustling Solihull town centre to the peaceful Malvern Park, each location holds a piece of the puzzle that will lead you to the hidden bowls.
Will YOU be the one to solve the mystery and find the missing bowls of King Henry VIII?
