Start of EA flood defence work

This week has seen the start of the flood defence work in the area between the 4th and 7th holes. 

The Environment Agency's contractor, VBA, have sub contracted all golf course earthworks to Lakeland, who recently carried out the shaping of our new tees and bunkering. 

We are very pleased that Lakeland are carrying out this work for us. It is reassurance for the golf club that the work will be undertaken by a recognised and reputable golf course construction company.

Lakeland have already started work on the new 8th tee. Progress has been steady but we are confident that once this new tee has been finished, progress with the main flood defence bunding will be very straightforward.

Admittedly, these photos do not show this area of the golf course in its best light. But they will be good to reflect upon once the work has been completed. If you see Wayne & Jamie from Lakeland on site, please be sure to talk to them if the opportunity allows.
