Newbury & Crookham Golf Club
Golf club in Berkshire, England
About
Newbury & Crookham Golf Club is located about two miles from the centre of Newbury, Berkshire on the fringes of Greenham Common. The Club is the result of an amalgamation in 1946 of two clubs: Crookham Golf Club, founded in 1873, and Newbury District Golf Club, founded in 1923.
The present course, as envisaged for the Newbury District Golf Club, was opened for play in 1923. It was designed and constructed by John H. Turner and James Sherlock. John H. Turner was formerly engaged at RMC Camberley, Thornock, Gainsborough, Flackwell Heath, Denham, and, by 1922, Frilford Heath. His contribution was by far the greater, being responsible for most of the design of the course. James Sherlock was first engaged as a professional at Oxford University before moving to Stoke Poges and, by 1922, to Hunstanton. His best performances in the Open Championship were 6th at Sandwich in 1904 and 8th at St Andrews in 1905. He was a frequent winner of professional tournaments.
