The club is located off junction 4 of the M53 motorway, indeed the the fifth tee is immediately adjacent to the motorway. After coming off the motorway at this junction take the B5151 signed posted for Birkenhead. Coming from the north it is the first road off the roundabout and coming from the south it is the third road off the roundabout. History The club is called Brackenwood because the original 9 hole course, between Mount Road and Brackenwood Lane, is located on the former Brackenwood Estate. The estate was founded in 1885 by John Evans, the son of the founder of Evans Medical. He had the house designed by his architect brother-in-law, Aston Webb and called the house and the surrounding estate Brackenwood. The photograph on this page is of the original house. Unfortunately it was demolished in 1958 after suffering serious neglect during World War II. Sponsored Links |
