North Manchester Golf Club

Founded in 1894 on land rented from the Earl of Wilton at Crumpsall, the club bought Rhodes House and 180 acres at Middleton in the early 1920s when its original site was sold for development. This mature parkland course, with several reservoirs as scenic hazards, is often described as a hidden gem within the Manchester conurbation, and is currently undergoing redevelopment with a new clubhouse alongside an adjoining housing scheme.
