Sherdley Park Golf Club

Opened in the mid-1970s within the mature woodland of St Helens' Sherdley Park, this council-run pay-and-play course is designed by Peter Parkinson and known for tree-lined fairways and distinctive MacKenzie-style greens that reward a precise short game. It remains one of the North West's most popular municipal courses, with a mix of par 3s and par 5s suiting golfers of all standards.
