Wayne,
But this architect really doesn't have any public courses in his resume, as some of his contemporaries do.
Craig,
You're absolutely right. This is great, rolling land, situated in an urban area. I think everything drains left towards the creek, but I might be mistaken.
This is neglected, but the bones are still there. From the ground, one can see filled in bunkers and green pads that could be reclaimed with a little effort.
The 17th hole, which is in the clearing in the lower center of the picture, could be wonderful if the bunkers were reclaimed and the trees were removed. When you see the look of the hole, it bears an unmistakeable likeness.
Art Hills hasn't gotten here yet.
15th hole is different today--the plans had it routed differently, remember? It's choked with trees, and up the hill. It would be a wonderful hole to tee off and just rip a driver with 10 yards of cut on it down the fairway.
Routing is as follows:
1st hole-from the parking lot, downhill towards the woods. Bunkers behind the green were filled in, they're in the plan and still visible.
2nd-back up the hill towards the shed.
2 bunkers to the right of the green, slightly lower than green level, maybe another one was green level and cut into the hill on the left at one time. Hmmm...
3rd hole-par 3 at the bottom of the picture. Green shape isn't perfect, but from the ground...
4th hole-across the entrance road, all the way to the right in the picture.
5th-to the left of 4. Plays in same direction. Great rolling land here.
6th-opposite direction as 5.
7-uphill, green is on a ridge.
8-just above 7.
9-great rolling land, I recall some really good use of slopes.
10-middle of picture, NE towards Philadelphia.
11-par 3 at top
12-at top
13-down a small hill
14-left to right on the left side.
15-walk around 16 green, and play up the hill. This isn't original.
16-back down the hill. Funny looking bunker here, I don't think it's Hills
17-unmistakeable, the par 3 green
18-back up the hill towards the clubhouse, opposite as #1.
