We can now utilise more of the green for pin placements, while a run off area has been created at the back right.
Eden 5th green renovations complete
The renovations to the 5th green of the Eden Course are now complete. Golf course architect, Martin Hawtree has been involved throughout the process and has made several site visits.
The original character and shape of the two-tier green has been retained while the renovations have allowed us to increase the area of the putting surface.
The bunker on the left of green has been pulled towards the front and reshaped while the rear was lowered to allow better access.
The mound which encroached onto the very right edge of the green has been dragged further right and a new bunker added to protect the back portion of the green. This will allow for better traffic flow.
We can now utilise more of the green for pin placements, while a run off area has been created at the back right.
Rough mounding at the rear of the green screens the 6th tee and walkways have been graded through these to allow golfers easy access to the tee.
