  • The Story So Far
    The Story So Far ... Pre-1850 - The Early Days The history of curling in the Bridge of Weir area prior to 1850 is a little sketchy. Robert Spiers, a member of the Club who died in 1863, is recorded as saying that his father and others in the district began to play the game immediately after the great match between the Duke of Hamilton and William McDowall of Castle Semple on Lochwinnoch Loch for a prize of 1000 guineas, which took place in early 1784. Apparently, curling became very popular in the district as a result of this match. The First Grand Match, Penicuik, 15 January, 1847 Water colour. Artist: Jemimah Wedderburn It is recorded that the Club was instituted in 1846, and the Royal Caledonian Curling Club Annual of 1847 records the admittance of the Club. The Black Bull Inn was the venue on 3 November 1849 for the first minuted meeting of the Club, when Mr. Spiers Senior was elected president. 1850 - 1900 - The Great Outdoors Friendly matches against other clubs, District Medal draws, and club matches for President’s prizes or the Club medal were the normal pattern for the first fifty years, with Club rinks traveling to curl at Grand Matches at Carsbreck. The earliest friendly match minuted was against Dalry Union in 1848 but regular friendly matches were held against Houston, Kilbarchan, Kilmacolm, Paisley, Johnstone, Ardgowan Barony, and Lochwinnoch. Points competitions or ends of striking were recorded, and on one occasion a peeled game was resolved by 2 ends of outwicking. Houstonhead and Lochwinnoch were regular venues for X11th Province competitions and friendlies during the 19th century.
