Wellingborough Golf Club

Wellingborough Golf Club is based in the Northamptonshire town of Wellingborough, in the Nene valley in the east of the county. The town grew up around the shoe and leather trades and later as a railway and market centre, and today sits within easy reach of Northampton, Kettering and Rushden, with the A45 and A509 providing routes in from the surrounding area. The golf club forms part of the town's sporting life, offering members and visitors a course set within the gently rolling landscape typical of this part of the Nene valley. Like many established clubs, Wellingborough carries out periodic improvement work on its course, including reconstruction of teeing grounds, part of the ongoing maintenance that keeps the layout in good order through the year. The club's location within the town makes it a convenient option for local golfers, while its position in north Northamptonshire places it within a reasonable drive of several other courses in the county, giving visitors the chance to combine a round here with golf elsewhere in the area during a longer stay.
