Summary
| Description |
English: Bowring Park golf clubhouse. Bowring Park golf course was the first municipal golf course in UK, opened 1913 in the grounds of Roby Hall. Sir William Bowring presented the hall and its estate to the City of Liverpool in 1906 and after his death in 1913 a 9 hole course was created. This was extended to 18 holes in the 1960s but Bowring Park was decimated with the building of an enormous roundabout for the M62 junction 7, however, more recently, new land was reclaimed on the other side of the motorway, reached by a footbridge and the course has been restored to its 18 holes. All that remains of the Roby estate are a few outbuildings, this one houses the golf clubhouse. |
