Stoneham Golf Club
Golf Courses & Equipment in Southampton, Hampshire
The course was designed by Willie Park Junior, who designed Old Course at Sunningdale and Stoneham shares a wealth of the characteristics that can be seen there. The course retains the parkland character of the historical landscape improved upon in 1775 by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. It was opened in 1908 with a match between J H Taylor and James Braid. Willie Park Junior laid out the original course in a deer park a mere 3 miles from the middle of Southampton, yet its hilly nature and the depth of its gorse and heather come as a pleasant surprise to most visitors.

Willie Park Junior, designer of Sunningdale Old Course, created a wonderful course in the undulating heath and parkland, and although it is short by todays championship standards at 6400yds, it is not a course that will be overpowered; brain will reward you more than brawn. Laid out in a beautiful piece of heathland on the Northern boundary of Southampton, Stoneham Golf Club has always presented a good challenge to all standards of golfers.
