Latest News:
The Loss Of Our Great Friend.
It is with great sadness that I inform all the Castle members of the death of our great friend and shooting partner Dean Broughton on 3rd May 2026.
Dean was an integral part of the club, always helping when possible with the jobs that required doing; whether it was painting, setting courses or general maintenance and he did this whilst dealing with prostate cancer and then stomach cancer.
He would always find time for new starters and pass on any help and information he could.
Dean will be missed by us all.
Rest in peace mate, we will not forget you!
Paul Hilton.
