Hi shipmates , ref Darts I recall playing on a dart board in a dockside pub many years ago, it was made out of clay, with wire numbers? not sure if it the pub was some where near poole or weymouth I was on a coaster and we had a new port every night to explore and the beer /cider was very cheap back in them days
By the late 1920s a standardised dartboard was introduced and remains the most popular dartboard today across the world. However, the ‘standard’ dartboard (also known as the ‘London’ board) was not an overnight success in the UK. Initially it had to compete with other different existing target boards played on in some localities. These have come to be known as ‘regional dartboards’ and were usually named after their region of origin, for example, the Yorkshire Doubles board, Kent Doubles, the London Fives and the Manchester Board.London Fives or Narrow Fives BoardManchester Log-end Board
Rob, thanks for that it answers all my questions.
The Kent board was all black.
