A nine hole course near Plymouth Township, Pa
« on: July 27, 2014, 09:55:50 PM »
All-

I am doing some research in the area on golf courses and was wondering if anyone knew of 9 hole courses that exist/existed in the 1960s in this area (call it approximately 7 mile radius).

Below is what I have so far:

Flourtown
Mermaid Golf and Swim
Glenhardie
Phoenixville

Woody's (NLE) 18 holes short course

Mermaid still exists:

Flourtown still exists:

Pinetown sounds familiar but I can't place it.

Glenhardie & Phoenixville are nowhere near Plymouth Twp.

Pinetown was in Upper Dublin Township.  On Pinetown Road, between Highland and Susquehanna.
Originally was 12 holes, later changed to 9.

Not sure when it closed but the course was still there on the 1971 Penn Pilot photos.

Another course to add to the list: Phila Cricket Club - St. Martins
