Fraserburgh Golf Club

Golf is first documented as having been played at Fraserburgh in 1613 when the parish Kirk Session records refer to a young lad named John Burnett who was chastised for "playing at the gouff" on a Sunday instead of going to church. He was ordered by the Session to be sent to the "maister's stool for correction". Following receipt of documents from the National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh it has been firmly established that the Fraserburgh Golf Club was founded on 14th April 1777 and that the membership consisted of nineteen of the most prominent "landed gentry" in the north-east of Scotland.

Fraserburgh Golf Club plays over 18 holes, a par of 70, and a length of 6,318 yards.
