The course
Eighteen holes of parkland
A wonderful 18 hole golf course which offers golfers of all levels a challenging experience. The course includes a number of water features, mature woodlands and undulating fairways.
Since 1994
Weald Park, then Brentwood
The golf course opened in June 1994 under its original name, Weald Park Golf Club. It was designed by Reg Plumbridge, a local golf architect, and constructed to a modern specification by Golf Landscapes Ltd. Additional layout and design work on the course is by Russell Phillips.
In November 2013 local businessman Mike Seabrook purchased the course and immediately renamed it Brentwood Golf Club.
The investment
The first project was to restore every bunker on the course: emptying, cleaning, draining and refilling each one with new tour quality sand.
Over the first three years of Mike Seabrook's ownership more than £700,000 was spent directly on upgrading the course: fairway drainage was added, seven new white tees were built, a major new water hazard was added at the 6th green, strategically lengthening the course, 50 established trees were moved, several new tree plantations were planted, all-weather tee mats were installed, and the single biggest project yet was an 18 hole buggy path.
The card
Par 72 off the white and yellow tees, par 73 off the reds. SSS 72.
