This timeless and unspoiled corner of Britain where the Jutish Meon Wara
tribe settled in the 3rd century AD, would offer to the Golfing World a course
set high on the undulating uplands of Corhampton Down, with a backcloth Eastwards
and to the North, to the once Roman-occupied hilltops overlooking the lovely
Meon River valley. Views Westwards are long panoramas which descend over the
crowned tops of many separate woodlands, towards the Solent, the Isle of
Wight and the New Forest. All over the World, Golf Courses preserve the beauty
of the countryside into which they are constructed, there is only one positive
way by which you, the reader will fully acknowledge the picturesque landscape
which the Author can not portray -- come and play golf at Corhampton. There
are Inns in the valley Villages which cater for visitors, with accommodation
and escellent [sic] cuisine. Overseas readers will be furnished local
Hostelry addresses upon request. Equidistant from: Winchester, Southampton,
Fareham, Portsmouth, Horndean, Petersfield and Alton on the outer ring there
are also smaller place-names nearer to the course such as: Cheriton, Bramdean,
East and West Meon, Warnford, Exton, Meonstoke, Droxford, Soberton, Swanmore,
Wickham, Wickham Chase, Bishops Waltham and Upham, Corhampton was redesigned
into an eighteen holed course in 1975, in the same year a new purpose-built
Clubhouse with full catering services and an extremely well stocked Professional's
Shop replaced an aged but much loved Hut.
Now! let us have a brief glimpse round the course so that the prospective
player is enabled to visualise the scene.
