Worfield Golf Club

Worfield Golf Club sits in the rolling Shropshire countryside near Bridgnorth, occupying parkland that benefits from the region's characteristic mix of mature woodland and agricultural land. The course was designed by Gough and George B. Williams, reflecting the work of architects who contributed to the expansion of golf in the English Midlands during the twentieth century. The layout takes advantage of natural elevation changes and tree-lined corridors that define many of the holes. The routing moves through varied terrain, with several holes playing along gentle slopes and others occupying more level ground. Mature trees frame fairways and create strategic interest, requiring accuracy from the tee on tighter holes while offering more generous landing areas where the topography allows. Water features come into play on select holes, and the bunkering follows traditional parkland principles, protecting greens and penalizing wayward approaches. Worfield serves as a members' club with a local and regional membership base, typical of established clubs in this part of England. The course provides a test suitable for a range of abilities, with length and layout that reward course management rather than relying solely on distance. The setting offers views across the Shropshire countryside, and the club maintains the traditions common to parkland courses in the region, balancing competitive golf with social aspects of club life.
