Dumfries Rotary Club members were treated to a fascinating talk on the history of the Crichton Golf Club, currently celebrating it’s 140th anniversary.
Interestingly, on both sites, the club has received complaints from the general public regarding stray golf shots landing in private property, or the Glencaple road. The current course was designed by George Templeton, then professional at Dumfries and County Golf Club, and opened in April 1970. In 1997, with the closure of the Crichton Royal Hospital, the “Royal” designation was dropped and the golf club renamed Crichton Golf Club. The course was purchased by Dumfries and Galloway Council in 1995 and was administered by the Crichton Development Company until May 2005 when the members took over the running of the club.
