Wetherby

Wetherby Golf Club sits on the eastern edge of its namesake market town, a place better known for its racecourse than its fairways — though golfers in this part of West Yorkshire have been making the short drive here for well over a century. The club dates to the late Victorian era, part of a wave of inland parkland courses that spread across northern England as the game moved beyond the Scottish links. It occupies gently rolling ground typical of the lower Wharfe valley, where mature trees define the boundaries of holes and the turf tends to hold moisture through the cooler months.
