Berkhamsted - 25th July 2024
178 enthusiastic golfers took on the challenging Berkhamsted Golf Club in fantastic condition. Everyone was quick to notice how tricky the course was when you missed the fairways, which left many people finding it hard to score! The weather was dry with a stiff breeze and everyone left great reviews of all facilities on offer at the club.
Berkhamsted Golf Club is set 600 feet up in the Chilterns, within one of the largest expanses of heathland in Hertfordshire and golf on this common land dates back to 1874. In the 1880s, a young schoolteacher called George Gowring, aided by Willie Park Jr., laid out a basic 9-hole golf course. A couple of years later, in 1890, the golf club was officially inaugurated, making it Hertfordshire's oldest golf club alongside Chorleywood, which was also founded in 1890.
