Golf Club
Anglesey Golf Club Rhosneigr, is situated on the beautiful isle of Anglesey and is a must for anyone who loves golf. A stunning course and the very same links where Dr Frank Stableford worked on his World renowned scoring system.
A Brief History of Anglesey Golf Club
Dating back to 1914 the club was formed as a collaborative project between a number of local notables, including Charles Henry Palethorpe and James Ravenscroft. These two, in common with two other local businessmen – Charles A. Mills and Dr. H. Stinton Lowe – arranged to rent an area of Common Land (from the Conservators) and employed one Harold Horsfall Hilton to create a golf course. Hilton was a native of Cheshire and a golfer of stature. He won the Open in 1892 and 1897 and was the US Amateur Champion in 1911. So, we have a great pedigree. In October 1914, the Anglesey Golf Club opened its doors as an eighteen-hole links course and the rest, as they say, is history.
