Dewsbury District Golf Club – Formed in 1891, the Dewsbury District Golf Club is built on land known locally as the "Pinnacle". Originally designed by Old Tom Morris himself, custodian of the Old course, St Andrews and Open Champion in 1861,62,64 and 1867. It was later made into an 18 hole layout by Ted Ray from Ganton in 1906 and further alterations were overseen by Peter Alliss and Dave Thomas in 1972. Some great course designers have left their mark on our course.
