Great piece for a great piece of golfing history. My father started his working life at Minch Old. When I visited a few years ago and mentioned my father worked at Minchinhampton, the gentleman in the shop asked his name and promptly disappeared into the back of the shop. He re-emerged with their centenary book and open it on a page where there was a photograph of my father at work. A special moment.
Richard, I really like your article's. They are well written and informative. I am a member at Westward Ho/RND so was particularly pleased to read of your visit.
It’s a “marmite” course that one either loves or loathes.
Having spent most of my working life in the South West I am very familiar with the likes of Cleeve Hill and Minchinhampton.
Please let me carry you bag on one of your next golfing odysseys! I promise to keep things simple!
A great read about another gem from within the vast heritage of golf.
In my humble (but totally unprofessional ) opinion, this ought to stand as among your best thus far.
Next time I have time to spare whilst on M5, M4 or A419, I now know where to spend it.
Many thanks and well done.
