Red Wharf Bay & Benllech Golf Club, Pentraeth, Anglesey.

First appearing in the mid 1920s, the club disappeared following WW2.

 

The secretary was J W Woolley, Trigfa, Benllech, Tynygough P.O, the professional was G Davies and the green-keeper G Jones. A 9-hole course, visitors’ fees were 2/6 d a day, 10/- a week and 15/6d a fortnight. Sunday play allowed. The Red Wharf and Benllech station was a short walk to the course in the early years. Later on the nearest railway station was at Bangor, with a bus service to the course every half hour, this was probably a factor in the demise of the club. Local hotels were the Min y Don and Bryntirion.
