Designer Adrian Stiff (2002)
Following on from my trip to the Players Club and helping Adi to put up a set of pics of the main Codrington Course. It has been used as a venue for the Europro Tour 3rd level tier below the main European Tour and the Challenge Tour. Like the new Stranahan Course this course was built on a landfill site.
