historical background

bullet

Henbury Golf Course opened in 1931.

bullet

The first nine holes were designed by Rupert S Black, a renowned golf architect who designed the Royal Queensland Golf Course, as well assisting in the layout of the Elanora and Oatlands courses in Sydney. 

bullet

 The second nine holes were designed some years later by acknowledged architect, Arthur East.

bullet

 The course was constructed in the midst of the Great Depression and the Club survived to celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2006.  This special year was commemorated with the publication of a book “Henbury – The early history of a country golf course” (copies are held by golfing museums in England and the United States).  The book can be purchased from the Club or the Kandos Museum.
