Bishop's Stortford Golf Club was designed by James Braid with the help of Douglas Rolland and H. S. Colt as part of Sir Walter Gilbey's plans for the Hockerill Park Estate. It was opened on 11 June 1910. For more information see information on the online Bishops Stortford and Thorley history. | |||
