Golf Club Development

Please find below a tentative timeline of the various projects relating to the development.

  • Car Park – once design and drainage requirements are finalised, work is likely to commence in 10 weeks (approx. mid April)
  • Hole 17 – the covering and mounding of this area with top soil will commence over the next week.
  • Earthworks along car park (preparation for the retaining wall) – clearing of the area at the back of the Greens Shed area, especially the diesel tank – will commence in the first half of March.
  • Hole 18 boundary – while this is a long term task, the bulk of the earthworks will commence in a couple of months (end April).
  • Hole 1 (roadside trimming) – Main Power will undertake this work either Monday or Tuesday (16/17 February) with debris being chipped.
  • Practice Area (trees along the roadside) – MainPower have agreed to “hard prune to ground level”  the 9 trees at no cost, next week.  Paul Woods will be organising a team to assist with the clear-up.  Anyone able to assist on Tuesday 16 February, please see Paul.
Bar Prices

Prices will increase as from 1 March 2026, due to brewery increases on all products with the main impact being on tap and bottled beers.
