A traditional game of northern villages. Set into the ground are pairs of concrete rectangles, each with a wooden bar across one end, marking where a player must stand, and a square pit of clay at the other end in which there's a metal spike or stake. The aim is to throw the quoit from one end of the pitch to the other end scoring points for the closest quoit to the stake. (1)
