Halifax West End Golf Club will be returning to a full 18 hole layout for the 2027/28 season following a programme of improvements and redevelopment at the Club.

A small portion of the club's land which contained parts of two holes, an overflow car park and a large area of mature trees and non-playable rough has been sold to fund these developments.

Fifteen of the holes on the course will be unaffected, in playing terms, by the development although the income generated has funded great improvements to the existing greens, tees, fairways, bunkers and clearance of rough and pruning of trees. The order in which the course is played will change slightly although a round will still start in front of the newly-refurbished Clubhouse, over the pond, to the same first hole and finish with a long, challenging dog-leg 18th.

There will be some tree removal, with replacement and additional planting to define the new holes - new bunkers will also be created. There will be a new path from the back of the new 13th green to the 14th tee routed through the trees. Similarly from the 11th green a new path will go behind the 12th green and down to the new 12th tee. We will share measurements and stroke indexes when available and are all looking forward to playing the new course in the 2027-28 season. New members and visitors are welcome to join us.

The work will commence in late Summer 2026 and the course will remain open and playable throughout, perhaps with some additional GUR. Although some parts of the new layout may come into play sooner, the full course will open for the start of the 2027 season. Please follow our social media feeds for regular progress reports and photographs.
