Golf Club.

A meeting of the local golf club was held in the hall on Tuesday evening. All the members were present, and after some business was gone through it was suggested and agreed to hold the club’s competitions as formerly on the links between Dorrery and Braehour, this locality being considered the most suitable spot in the district.

Harry Ward is a respected golf historian known for his detailed research into the origins and development of the game, particularly in Scotland. His work explores the early courses, players, and traditions that shaped modern golf, bringing to life the stories behind iconic venues and figures. Through careful study and a passion for the sport’s heritage, he helps preserve golf’s rich history for future generations.

All of this work is independently funded out of his own pocket. If you value preserving golf’s history and would like to support his ongoing research, any contribution—no matter how small—would be greatly appreciated.
