Course Update...
| The current course drainage work was completed last week. Apart from cleaning out existing drains the major work completed was the underground drains on the 16th fairway and the left side of the 3rd green. These areas will be grassed over this week. A bridge has been installed on the second hole - see photo - click to enlarge... |  |
In addition, last week the pipe has been installed on the start of the 3rd fairway and the pathway is now open. See the photos below... filling the excavation with aggregate and the finished job.
