Teesside Golf Club Teesside

Steeped in more than a hundred years of traditions you will be warmly welcomed when you visit Teesside. In recent times a re-furbishment of the clubhouse has left the club with some of the best facilities in the region as well as one of the best golf courses.

A group of local golfing enthusiasts were inspired to found a golf club after the Mayor of Stockton in a public speech deplored the fact that there was no golf course in either Stockton or Thornaby. After a meeting in Stockton Town Hall it was decided to found Teesside Golf Club and the course was opened on the 23rd May 1901.

The original course was only 6 holes, reclaimed from old marshes at Mandale Bottoms. Surrounded by the River Tees, the course was particularly prone to flooding, however recent extensive drainage improvements have benefited the course greatly. The Clubhouse was opened in 1932 and was originally an old granary to which ships coming up the Tees delivered their grain.

The site also boasted a windmill that was mentioned in the cartulary records of 1275 and was burnt down in 1881.
