THE gentle sound of metal ball clinking against metal ball will soon be part of the sights and sounds of Stonehouse Creek with work underway to create two new pétanque terrains.
Ten ‘pistes’ are being created near the new Shekinah building as a venue for a group of players to continue to meet, toss their metal boules around the field of play, and socialise. It is expected work will take 14 weeks and is being carried out by Ryearch Ltd.
The game hails from France but is now played all over the world.
