Overview
At the time, an unorthodox approach, Commander George Hillyard conceived of the idea of placing a golf course on sandy farmland that he believed had the potential to become a perfect natural course. The West Sussex Golf Club, located in Pulborough, was designed by Campbell and Hutchison and was ready for play by the fall of 1930. Initially known for its vast open layout, the course began planting pine and birch trees in the 1930s, giving it a distinctly woodland character, complemented by an abundance of heather flower. Golfers can expect bunkers with pristine, beach-like white sand meticulously placed throughout the course, where both aesthetic beauty and strategic challenge are vividly apparent.
