The Club St George's Hill remains today a golfing gem. Each hole, of which there are three loops of nine, is memorable and individual in character, lined with heather and elegant Scots pine - the fairways are undulating and follow the natural contours of the land. Whilst Harry Colt master-minded the course, George Tarrant built the impressive Clubhouse, or pavilion as it was then called. In 1913, the pavilion and course were officially opened by Prince Alexander of Teck. It was then an impressive thatched building of three stories and wooden verandas. During the first war, the Clubhouse served as a military hospital treating over 3000 wounded and shortly after, in March 1920, fire swept through the building destroying the thatch and upper storey. Once rebuilt the club opened its second course fo 18 holes in 1929 but this was reduced to nine holes just after the second world war. To this day St Georges Hil remains one of the most hilly and spectacular courses in Surrey. |
