Tales from the Locker Room

An Open Champion

In 1950, the Irish PGA invited the Club to host a qualifying round of the Daily Mail Tournament, a national UK competition for golfing professionals. In front of a large crowd of spectators, the 1947 Open Champion, Fred Daly, won the event, going on to compete in Walton Heath for a prize pot of 500 guineas.

Men's Course Records

The current Men’s course record was set by Daniel Beattie during the Rob Roy Cup in August 2006. His gross score of 63 included six birdies and an eagle. Dan has gone on to become a PGA-accredited teaching professional, based in Sheshan International Golf Club in Shanghai, China.

Wildlife on the Course

We are blessed with a diversity of habitats around our course, from dense hawthorn hedgerow, thick grassy verges, mature stands of native trees on the course, alongside the surrounding landscapes.

The piercing calls of resident buzzards are regularly to be heard in the skies above you; rabbits will scuttle away at your approach around the fifth hole, with an occasional hare around; badgers are regular visitors, sometimes leaving their mark on the fairways; you’ll hear Great Tits and summer warblers among the calls of wrens and collared doves.
