West Lancashire Golf Club
Overview
The West Lancashire Golf Club was founded in 1873 by seven members of Royal Liverpool Golf Club anxious to expand the ‘Scottish national game’ by bringing it across the River Mersey.
As such, the West Lancashire Golf Club is the oldest in the county of Lancashire and one of the earliest golf clubs in England. At the outset, both clubs shared the same membership and by 1903, five West Lancashire Captains had also been Captain at Hoylake.
Royal Liverpool’s Harold Hilton was also a member at West Lancashire when he won his two Open Championships and he was our Club’s first paid Secretary when he won the second of his four Amateur Championships in 1901.
The present clubhouse, opened in 1962, was designed by London architects Tripe & Wakeham, and built by Holland & Hannen and Cubitts, as a complete break with the traditional, to be a two storey modern suntrap building with the principal rooms on the first floor featuring a broad terrace along the north side of the building overlooking the river.
