Aston Wood Golf Club

Aston Wood Golf Club, in Sutton Coldfield, plays over a course originally laid out by Harry Vardon and later reworked by Harry Colt, two of the most significant figures in early twentieth-century golf course design. The layout measures 6,772 yards, a length intended to test golfers of most standards without becoming unreasonably long for club play. That pedigree has helped the course earn recognition among the country's higher-ranked layouts and has brought a number of national and international amateur and professional tournaments to the club over the years. Sutton Coldfield's position on the northern edge of Birmingham gives the club a wooded, suburban setting typical of the area's better-known golf courses, several of which share a similar Vardon or Colt design heritage. The scale of the challenge, combined with the course's design history, has made Aston Wood a recognised name among golfers well beyond its immediate West Midlands catchment, drawing visiting players keen to test themselves against a layout with genuine tournament pedigree.
