Towneley Golf Club

Established in 1932, with the original nine holes designed by James Braid and extended to a full 18 in 1967, this friendly municipal course sits within historic Towneley Park, Burnley. Its Grade II-listed clubhouse is a converted 18th-century farmhouse, and mature trees, ponds and streams make for a proper test of golf despite the course's modest length, with a notorious pond guarding the 2nd and 3rd holes.
