  • History of Royal Cromer Golf Club Established 1888
    History of Royal Cromer Golf Club established 1888 Information obtained from minute books, letters, members records, journals and periodicals. Royal Cromer Golf Club History Established 1888 Royal Cromer Golf Club owes its existence to the enthusiasm and love of the game of a Mr. Henry Broadhurst M.P., a Scot who lived at 19, Buckingham Street, The Strand, London. In the 1880's, whilst holidaying in Cromer, he recognised the potential of land to the seaward of the Lighthouse as a possible site for a Links Course. The popularity of North Norfolk at this time had been noted in the London City Press in a report dated 5th September 1886: "The public are greatly indebted to railway enterprise for the opening up of the East Coast. More bracing air and delightful sands are not to be found in any part of England. The only drawback is that the country is rather flat. This remark, however, does not apply to Cromer, which bids fair to become the most popular watering place, it being entirely free from objectionable features". The site of the proposed golf course was owned by the then Lord Suffield KCB, who kindly consented to the request of Broadhurst and some twenty other enthusiasts to rent the land. The Club was instituted in the Autumn of 1887 with Lord Suffield as President. Doubtless it was his friendship and influence with the Prince of Wales which precipitated the Prince's gracious patronage of the infant club on 25th December 1887. Thus Cromer had a Royal Golf Club even before its official opening the following January.

  • 1 the Ancient Greeks Generally Reckoned
    The ancient Greeks generally reckoned time by Olympiads, that is to say, the period of time between celebrations, hence, every fifth year they held the Olympian Games. We have Dr William Penny Brookes to thank for the modern Olympics. He was a Shropshire GP and exercise fanatic who, in the late 1800s, thought it would be a fine idea to re-instate the ancient Greek Olympian Games - Bravo! But wait.… there seem to be plenty of examples of Olympic events in this country going back centuries before Penny Brookes. Robert Dover, a Lawyer from Norfolk, started the Cotswold Olimpiks exactly 400 years ago, after King James I gave him royal permission ....and some cast-off clothes, so that he might preside with greater dignity. The Cotswold Olimpiks continues to this very day. Working to the Greek 5 year rule, this year is their 80th Olympiad! Of course, we had the Ho-limpyc Gaymes in Oswestry in 1834 which unfortunately means that we are 3 years early for the 36th Oslympiad! Do you think anyone will notice? BRITISH FENCING use this Oswestry Games photograph for the cover of ‘The Sword’ magazine! 1 Richard Stonehouse of StonehousePhotographic, took such a wonderful photograph of Tom Gulliver and Bridie Lloyd of Oswestry Fencing Club that we decided to stage Rotary Club of Oswestry a photographic exhibition at Milanos Café during the Games. More news of that next time. Richard’s photograph above, has attracted the attention of British We are fortunate to have received two very generous Fencing, the sport’s governing body, who have used it grants for the Oswestry Games.

  • The Final Rounds of the 1947 Open Championship Were Played at Royal Liverpool Golf Club in Hoylake
    The Final rounds of the 1947 Open Championship were played at Royal Liverpool Golf Club in Hoylake. Northern Ireland's Fred Daly became the first Irish winner of the Open Championship, one stroke ahead of runners-up Reg Horne and amateur Frank Stranahan. It was Daly's only major title. Henry Cotton and Laurie Ayton, Jnr shared the first round lead, but in the second round both fell back with rounds of 78 and 80, respectively. After 36 holes Daly owned a four-shot lead over Cotton. Daly had a poor third round, shooting 78 to fall into a tie for the lead with Cotton, Arthur Lees, and Norman Von Nida. There were a further nine players within three-strokes of the lead. Horne, who began two back, made the first move with a 35 on the front-nine. He took a pair of 5s at the 16th and 17th holes, however, and at the 18th his putt for a 3 lipped out. He finished with a 294 total. Daly began the round with a 38 on the front, but he recovered on the back and holed a birdie putt on the 18th to post 293. Cotton made the turn in 36 and needed a 35 on the back to tie Daly, but in the blustery wind this proved too difficult and he finished at 297. That left Stranahan as the last player on the course able to tie Daly. He reached the 17th needing to play the final two holes in 7, but a three-putt led to a 5 and saw him needing an improbable 2 on the last.
