About the course
Formed in 1913 Ashton-under-Lyne Golf Club is a wooded course nestling in the foot hills of the Pennines on the edge of the Greater Manchester conurbation.

Over the years great improvements have been made to the course with increased length, more bunkers and improved tees & greens. The club have also planted many new trees which are an attractive feature and of course a challenge!
