Newcastle United Golf Club

Newcastle United Golf Club was founded in 1892 and plays an 18-hole course to a par of 72 over 6,600 yards, on the western side of Newcastle upon Tyne in Tyne and Wear. Newcastle is the largest city in North East England, built along the River Tyne, with a compact Victorian and modern centre giving way to suburbs and then open moorland and farmland further west towards Northumberland. A course on this side of the city sits within reach of both the centre and that more rural county beyond, on ground with the moorland character common to this part of Tyneside. At 6,600 yards to a par of 72, it is a full-length 18-hole round by current standards. The club has been established for well over a century, one of the older golfing addresses in the North East.
