Sedgley Woods

About

Sedgley Woods is a section of east Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a historical disc golf course site. The site was established in 1977 and has one of the oldest permanent pole-hole disc golf courses. The Friends of Sedgley Woods, a volunteer organization, maintains the grounds and runs monthly tournaments, community outreach programs, and occasional events with the Mid-Atlantic Disc Club and the Professional Disc Golf Association.

The area was the country estate of Joshua Fisher (1707-1783), a wealthy Quaker merchant from Lewes, Delaware, who purchased the 40-acre property in 1753 and constructed a colonial mansion known as “The Cliffs.” The mansion was destroyed by a fire in 1986 after decades of not being maintained.
