Newark Golf Club

How it all began…. A Souvenir hand book of Newark Golf Club published in 1921 credits Mr Stuart MacRae (pictured left) with having introduced golf to Newark in about 1890. Mr MacRae, together with about a dozen fellow enthusiasts including Dr Ringrose (a fellow Scot) and Mr E H Nicholson, laid out 6 holes on the Sconce Hills elevated earthworks in a field on the Farndon Road near the river Devon.
