Historic Photos
History and interesting photographs about Walmley Golf Club:
Old Club House, Circa 1952:
Teeing on old First Tee, Circa 1952:
Old Hole:
This old hole used to be at the top of the now 12th hole.
The photograph is taken from the tee of a par 3 that was reputed to be one of the best short holes in the Midlands. The tee is probably now where a house stands on the north side of Brooks Road at the junction of Kempson Avenue. The photo is taken looking down onto the par three green with the present 12th and 13th holes in the distance. In the centre of the photograph can be seen three small Larches that are now the big trees to the left of the 12th Fairway.
