Golf has been played in the Northcliffe park area of Shipley since 1896 when a 9 hole course was developed. Shipley Golf Club was established and played over this course for many years until in 1921 they decided to move to a new course at Beckfoot, still their home today. A group of enterprising, visionary members decided they wished to stay at the course.
Our founder and major benefactor, Sir Norman Henry Rae MP, expounded a very clear vision that the club and course should be used by " people with limited means ". Clearly the beginnings of the "Artisan Golf Club" we enjoy today. The wonderful course which we love and play week in week out has evolved from the original 9 hole course, dating from 1896.

Loved it from start to finish. Well established clubhouse, well stocked pro. shop and a course in great nick. Opening hole with a knee knocking shot over a ravine into a lush parkland course of real quality. The 18th is a stunner from an elevated position down into the ravine that the first hole crosses.
Finished the day with a fish goujon sandwich, (served with fries, salad and tartare sauce) delicious!
All I can say is this club's members have every reason to be proud.
