Wirral Ladies Golf Club

Wirral Ladies Golf Club is a Members club in Birkenhead Merseyside, the main course is a Heathland type with 18 holes over 4948 yards with a par of 69.

Laid out when the Wirral was countryside and seashore, the course fits effortlessly into the natural environment, covering the highest open land on the peninsula. This largely hidden green oasis retains its heritage of small copses and heathland and has become an important habitat for wildlife. The course was designed by local lad Harry Hilton, a winner in the Open Championship at Muirfield in 1892, winning again at his home club Royal Liverpool in 1897. Hilton, a winner of the British Amateur Championship on four occasions, was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1978. Hilton’s clever design offers a subtle test of golf which is about so much more than how far you can hit the ball. Be cautious and you will score, but only by combining caution with boldness will you score well. Small traditional greens are often elevated to deflect or stifle the wavering approach shot. Bunkers lie in those very places where the ball wants to roll.
