Chelmsford Golf Club

Chelmsford Golf Club was founded in 1893, making it one of the older golf clubs in Essex, established while the game was still spreading out from its Scottish and southern English strongholds into county towns across the country. The course measures 5,892 yards, a length that sits toward the shorter end of a full round and suits a course laid out on compact, established parkland rather than open, rolling terrain. Chelmsford is Essex's county town, roughly thirty miles northeast of London, sitting in gently undulating countryside where the Rivers Chelmer and Can meet. A club of this age has typically grown up alongside the town itself, with mature trees and a settled layout replacing whatever open ground it started on more than a century ago. Membership at long-established clubs like this tends to carry local history as much as golf, and Chelmsford's position close to the town centre keeps it accessible for members without the drive out into open countryside that newer courses often require.

Chelmsford Golf Club plays over a length of 5,892 yards. The club dates back to 1893, giving it roughly 133 years of history in Chelmsford.
