Dore and Totley G.C.
Site during construction
The
Dore and Totley GC was opened in 1913, though designed with one or two inbred
defects – e.g. cross over holes - that from a modern perspective were
an unacceptable Health and Safety risk. Furthermore the possibility of a new
location for the clubhouse with two starting and finishing points close to
the clubhouse and additional car parking meant that three alternative layouts
had to be drawn up with the maximum flexibility for future changes.
Five new holes were recently constructed which has not only eradicated the
cross over holes but also added some 200 yards to the layout. The extension
was opened by the Minister for Sport, Richard Cabourn, in 2005
